A Glasgow MSP has been lambasted for claiming clinics "push abortion without laying out the pros and cons".
Jason Mason's recent support for anti-abortion vigils outside hospitals has sparked fury among pro-choice campaigners.
The SNP member, who represents Glasgow Shettleston, said abortion was "seldom essential or vital" after attending one of the controversial events.
Activists who've gathered at the vigils have been spotted with signs that read 'women do regret abortion' and 'choose life'.
On Saturday, Mason, while engaging on Twitter around the subject, said: "Surely these signs are very gentle and offering help? "I do not see anything hateful or harassing about these signs."
When asked if he believed the women seeking an abortion should be asked how they feel, he added: "Yes absolutely. That is the key.
"But the concern is that the clinics are not always asking the women how they feel. Some clinics seem to be pushing abortion without laying out the pros and cons."
The issue has come to the fore in recent months, resulting in Scottish Greens MSP Gillian Mackay seeking to legislate at Holyrood for buffer zones, as well as First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and women's health minister Maree Todd being urged to act.
The First Minister has repeatedly condemned the vigils, urging protesters instead to come to parliament to voice their opposition to abortion, and has set up a working group to assess the legal viability of buffer zones.
Pro-choice campaigners are calling for 150 metre 'buffer zones' - or protest-free areas - around healthcare facilities that provide abortion services across Scotland.
They believe the move is necessary to protect women from harassment by pro-life campaigners near clinics.
