Hard decisions are already being made every day in Ireland. I do not believe they need to be made in secrecy.I urge that we move forward in a positive way, having a more open public debate, while bringing back privacy with respect to personal decisions. Trust is the key word we have heard; we need to trust women and the State needs to earn the trust of women.
