Clare Daly: If we use all our time here, so be it. The presentation was absolutely excellent. I was struck by Dr. Henchion's comment that unintended pregnancy is a frequent occurrence. This committee has spent a great deal of time considering circumstances of rape, fatal foetal abnormality and the woman's health. In the experience of the IFPA, the majority of women who decide to access abortion would...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Socioeconomic Context: Dr. Caitriona Henchion and Mr. Niall Behan, Irish Family Planning Association (15 Nov 2017)

There is a huge link between the availability of contraception and unintended...
