Comment on this
The provision of family planning services by a health board is a matter primarily for that board. I have not seen any specific proposals from the Eastern Health Board relating to the area referred to by the Deputy.
The general approach of the Eastern Health Board, and of other health boards, is based on acceptance of the view that family planning services will normally be provided by the family doctor.
