A large crowd gathered at the weekend for an anti-abortion demonstration in Dublin city, which organisers said was to call for alternatives to abortion to be included in an ongoing review into Ireland’s new laws.
An independent review into termination of pregnancy services in Ireland is currently under way, three years since the liberalisation of strict abortion laws.
This gave women legal access to abortion during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, and later in pregnancy in cases where the woman’s life is at risk, or in cases of fatal foetal abnormalities.
