The abortion issue in Ireland
Submitted by admin on 28 February, 1992 - 11:51.
The International Humanist & Ethical Union and the European Humanist Federation strongly condemn the ruling of the Dublin High Court on 17th February granting an injunction to prevent a pregnant 14 year old rape victim from travelling to another country to obtain an abortion.

Humanists value individual liberty, the right to self-determination, and the human rights which flow from these principles, as indispensable to the quality of life and to a democratic society.
