A SENATE committee will today deliver its findings following an inquiry into the Federal Government's proposed healthcare laws, which could see up to 200 midwives deregistered.
Under the changes, midwives must be insured in order to be registered, but private insurers no longer provide cover for homebirthing.
Opponents believe it will drive the practice underground and increase health risks.
