TDs have voted to remove the three-day waiting period for people seeking an abortion, with the Sinn Féin bill passing its latest stage in the Dáil.On this morning's Agenda, we spoke to Sinn Féin TD for Louth, Ruairí Ó Murchú, who supports the move, and Aontú leader and Meath West TD, Peadar Tóibín, who strongly opposes it. The discussion became heated at times as the TDs clashed over the proposed change and what it could mean for abortion services in Ireland. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
