A large protest took place outside Leinster House on Monday afternoon in opposition to proposed changes to the abortion legislation.
Crowds who gathered for the 'March for Life' event were highly critical of the suggestion contained in the report stating that the three-day "reflection" period should be made optional.
The report, conducted by barrister Marie O’Shea, contained a number of legislative and operational recommendations for the abortion system, which she described as being "untenable" in some parts of the country.
