Ms Leah Hoctor:

I do not have data for what happens for women in Malta and Poland. My understanding is that many women in both countries also travel outside the country, in Poland's case potentially to neighbouring eastern European countries and in Malta's case often to the United Kingdom. Although I do not have data, I also believe that, similar to the position in Ireland, women are accessing abortion pills and ordering them online. In Poland there are reports from non-governmental organisations that there are quite high rates of clandestine abortions. As the socioeconomic status of women in Ireland is obviously higher relative to that of women in Poland, travel might be easier for women in Ireland than for women in Poland. Does that answer the question?
