The provision of counselling services for women who terminate pregnancies is the responsibility of the Health Service Executive (HSE) and as such, I have referred the question to the HSE for attention and direct reply. If the deputy has not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days, please contact my Private Office who will follow up the matter with them.
