Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 29 June 2023
440. Deputy Violet-Anne Wynne asked the Minister for Health if he will maintain a publicly available register of all general practitioners who object to providing services under the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31899/23]
View answerFollowing the enactment of the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018, the Government decided to provide termination of pregnancy services within existing mainstream health services. This was done both to embed the provision of termination of pregnancy into primary, community and acute services, and to ensure that services could be provided to those needing them in relative anonymity. Therefore, there is no publicly available complete list of healthcare providers either providing or not providing the services.
