Organizers are describing a pro-life rally to be held in Dublin this coming Saturday, 7 July, as Ireland’s largest pro-life event in fifteen years.
Abortion remains illegal in Ireland, despite the legal quandary left by the X case ruling in 1992. Two things protect the unborn child from abortion in Ireland: first, the provisions of the 1861 Offences Against the Persons Act and, secondly, a pro-life amendment made to Ireland’s constitution in 1983. The latter was, however, later interpreted, in 1992, by Ireland’s Supreme Court, to allow for abortion in the case of suicide.
