Irish Anti-Abortion Doctors in conscientious objection row

(FASTNEWS|COLOMBO) – A row over conscientious objection has broken out in Ireland as legislation to introduce abortion services is brought before Parliament on Thursday (04).

Anti-Abortion Doctors have said they do not wish to be forced to refer a pregnant woman seeking a termination to another Doctor.

Ireland voted to overturn its abortion ban in a referendum in May.

Health Minister Simon Harris has said he hopes abortion services will be available from January 2019.
