Minister says review into Holles Street termination case is warranted; Couple 'devastated' reveals solicitor

Health Minister Simon Harris has said an appropriate external review is warranted into the controversy over a pregnancy termination at the National Maternity Hospital.

The couple at the centre of the case are described as being "utterly devastated" and want an external review, after an abortion took place in March following test results showing a fatal foetal abnormality.
