German lawmakers have voted to repeal a Nazi-era law that banned doctors from providing information about abortions.

Under the controversial 1933 legislation, a number of medical workers had been imprisoned or fined for informing potential patients about the procedure.

But a majority of MPs in the Bundestag voted to end the ban on abortion "advertising" on Friday.

The motion received support from the ruling coalition and the Left Party but was opposed by the centre-right Christian Democrats and the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD).

Justice Minister Marco Buschmann had told lawmakers that it was high time" to abolish an "absurd" and "outdated" law.

I'm surprised they still have any laws from that time. Wouldn't they throw out that rule book when they got a new government?

The countries that supervised them probably didn't accept abortion back then either.

While not much consolation to American's, the recent ruling is making many European MP's push for relaxation/updating of our abortion laws.

I know in the UK we've had several wanting to update Northern Ireland's rules to follow Britain's, rather than Ireland's 12 weeks, while updating our own to actually making it a right rather than "certain cases you can't be prosecuted for"

There are still some laws left over from the Weimar era. In 1933 there was still a pretense of democracy.
