The important findings of a research study on abortion services in Ireland conducted by Prof Mary Donnelly and Dr Claire Murray from the School of Law received coverage in the Examiner over the weekend. 

The study, funded by the IRC New Foundations scheme and with the support of the Irish Family Planning Association (IFPA), focused on the experiences of clinicians providing early medical abortion in primary care settings following the legalisation of abortion in Ireland in 2019. Prof Donnelly and Dr Murray note that the 鈥榮tudy highlights the ongoing link between a moral commitment to women鈥檚 autonomy and health and the decision to provide early medical abortion in primary care settings following the repeal of the Eighth Amendment.鈥� They also emphasise that overall, the experiences of those providing abortion care has been extremely positive, with the service becoming increasingly normalised as part of family and reproductive medicine in primary care.
