- Irish parliament votes to remove three-day abortion wait
Ireland’s parliament voted to remove a mandatory three-day wait for abortion during early pregnancy. The Dáil passed the bill, which will proceed to a parliamentary committee and likely become law in the coming year. The waiting period had been part of a 2018 draft law aimed at gaining support for an abortion ban in a referendum.
