A decision by the Tuscany
regional council on Monday to provide free condoms to those
under 26 will also include other contraceptive methods, regional
Governor Enrico Rossi wrote in a Facebook post on Tuesday.
He added that contraceptives would also be free of charge for
"women until age 46 who are experiencing economic difficulties
in the two years after an abortion or the birth of a child."
"We are now working to increase sexual education in schools,
activities of family planning clinics and information campaigns
for sexuality that is healthy and aware," he said.
