Robert Troy (Longford-Westmeath, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I will repeat a question I asked last week to which I did not receive a reply. Perhaps the legal professionals will be able to reply today. Does the inclusion of a separate head on deliberate self-harm create a rebuttable presumption that mental illness is a reason to carry out an abortion? On the capacity of a person to make an irrevocable decision, whether based on a state of mind or being a minor, perhaps the legal professionals will clarify whether it would be better to address this issue before the legislation goes before the Oireachtas?
