There is ongoing concern about the privacy of women availing of abortion facilities, as well as the potential for intimidation of those who have made hard and difficult decisions to have an abortion. The Minister for Health has indicated that he will introduce a Bill to create safe zones around the facilities to provide an area where women will not be subjected to possible abuse, intimidation or demonstrations. Will the Tánaiste outline when the Government intends to bring the legislation forward?
