Members of the medical, legal and nursing professions are to sit on a 14-member expert group being set up to address the outcome of last year's European Court of Human Rights ruling on abortion rights in Ireland. Minister for Health James Reilly received approval to establish the group. Its report is expected around end of June 2012.
The programme for government pledged to "establish an expert group to address this issue, drawing on appropriate medical and legal expertise with a view to making recommendations to Government".
