Simon Harris: Abortion legislation 'will be before Dáil next Thursday'

The Pro Life campaign has accused the Minister for Health Simon Harris of 'railroading abortion proposals' through the Dáil after he offered reassurances that legislation to introduce services is not far off.

Minister for Health Simon Harris has said that legislation to introduce abortion services will be brought before the Dáil on Thursday and he hopes to have services available by the beginning of next year.

He was speaking at a March for Choice rally in Dublin this afternoon.
