First In World, Scotland Passes Bill To Make Period Products Free For All

In a groundbreaking decision, Scotland has become the first country to provide free 'period products' to women. Reportedly, the Scottish Parliament passed the Period Products (Free Provision) (Scotland) Bill to make free access of tampons and pads to all menstruating females at public facilities including educational institutions. Terming the bill, Scottish PM Monica Lennon said, “A signal to the world that free universal access to period products can be achieved.”
