The Reproductive Health measure is an affirmation of the constitutional right to privacy as stipulated in several Supreme Court decisions, Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago said yesterday.“The Supreme Court has recognized a right to privacy, even if there is no specific constitutional provision, because it is implied by several provisions in the Bill of Rights,” Santiago said in her co-sponsorship speech on the RH bill. “The right to privacy applies to sex, marriage, and procreation,” she said.
