HSE to challenge separate District Court decision
Miss D is in her 18th week of pregnancy with a baby suffering from anencephaly, a condition where most of its brain is missing and where it cannot survive more than three days after birth.
Yesterday, after hearing three days of legal submissions from five sets of lawyers in two sets of proceedings arising from the girl’s wish to travel for an abortion, Mr Justice Liam McKechnie said he could not give an immediate decision as requested by the HSE.
