Report of the Review of the Operation of the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018: Discussion
Lorraine Clifford-Lee (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
I thank the Cathaoirleach. I will refer quickly back to the Irish Family Planning Association, IFPA, research on the three-day wait and the 2.5% of the clients who continued with their pregnancies. Is there any evidence from Ms O’Shea’s own research that the people who continue with their pregnancies change their mind? I am trying to establish whether they had their minds made up going into the appointment and the appointment then changed their mind or were they using the appointment with their GP just to possibly explore their options?
