Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Implementation of Government Decision Following Expert Group Report into Matters Relating to A, B and C v. Ireland

1:40 pm

Dr. Seán Ó Domhnaill:

In 1992, I made it very clear that a substantial number of women were suffering with post-abortion psychological problems. I indicated at the time that it was essential to provide post-abortion counselling. The IFPA argued at the time that there was no such thing as post-abortion psychological sequelae but six years later opened its first post-abortion counselling centre in Cathal Brugha Street.
