(a) No person shall perform or induce a pregnancy termination upon a pregnant woman without first having given twenty-four hours actual notice to the expectant father of the unborn child as to the intention to perform such pregnancy termination.
(b) In cases where the pregnant woman certifies in writing that the expectant father's identity or whereabouts is unknown, or in cases where the attending physician certifies in writing that the termination procedure is necessary to preserve the life of the pregnant woman, such paternal notice is waived.
