434. Deputy Louise O'Reilly asked the Minister for Health his plans to ensure that counselling is available for all women who terminate pregnancies, irrespective of reason, cause or circumstance; the costs associated with extending counselling services; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17195/16]
View answerThe provision of counselling services for women who terminate pregnancies is the responsibility of the Health Service Executive (HSE) and as such, I have referred the question to the HSE for attention and direct reply. If the deputy has not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days, please contact my Private Office who will follow up the matter with them.
