Repeal vote won’t mean unrestricted access to abortion, say legal experts
Three independent legal experts made the prediction as a number of them separately said the Government should publish any legislation that would replace the Eighth Amendment before the referendum takes place.
Speaking during the latest meeting of the cross-party Oireachtas committee on the Eighth Amendment, Trinity College assistant professor of law David Kenny, Birmingham University’s global legal studies’ chair Fiona de Londras, and senior counsel Mary O’Toole said a repeal vote was unlikely to lead to unrestricted access to abortion.
