Tomorrow, it will be ten years since the tragic and avoidable death of Savita Halappanavar in an Irish hospital having been denied a life-saving operation for an abortion. Everyone will acknowledge that we have come a long way in the last ten years and her death ignited a movement that saw an end to the misogynistic anti-choice laws in this country. However, we still have a way to go. Abortion services are patchy and sometimes difficult to access. Doctors still operate under the shadow of criminalisation. The pro-choice movement has organised a march on Saturday, starting at 1 p.m. in Parnell Square, that I want to amplify in the hope that many people will come both to remember Savita and to honour the courage of her family and to demand that we improve the abortion legislation.

When will we see the results of the abortion review that is long overdue?

I thank the Deputy and I join with her in recalling the life and death of Savita Halappanavar. As she has said, much has changed in Ireland since then in terms of our laws in this area. The review is under way. I do not have it in front of me but I understand that it is led by an independent chair and has two main phases. I do not want to misinform the Deputy but I understand that it is supposed to be done by the end of this calendar year. I will double-check and come back to the Deputy if this is not the case.
