Female Genital Mutilation
11:40 am
Denis Naughten (Roscommon-Galway, Independent) | Oireachtas source
Female genital mutilation, FGM, is a barbaric practice perpetrated on young girls. While the practice is concentrated in 30 countries in Africa and the Middle East, it is a universal problem which continues to persist among migrant populations living in Ireland. I would like the Minister to update the House on the practical measures being taken to eliminate this practice.
