Is it not horrific that women have to face that at this point? How is the 2013 Act working? I know this was not part of Dr. McCarthy's presentation but it is relevant for decisions we must make on legislation. Do the current procedures under the Act provide dignity to patients? Are they workable across the country? Do they ensure pregnant women and girls who may need an abortion due to risk of suicide would be able to access the service? Are they necessitated and could another pathway be considered?
