Ireland could end up with one of the most extreme abortion regimes in the
world, campaigners warned

*Pro-life activists have launched a campaign urging citizens to vote no* *in
a forthcoming referendum to remove* *the Eighth Amendment* *to the Irish
Constitution. **That amendment provides legal protection for unborn
children “with due regard to the equal right to life of the mother.”*

Launching their outreach in Dublin April 18, *Caroline Simons of the Love
Both campaign group warned that if the Irish Constitution* *is amended,*
*“Ireland** will go from being a country that protects unborn babies** to
one of the most extreme abortion regimes in the world.”*

*Minister for Health Simon Harris has said that **if the amendment is
repealed, he will propose legislation to provide for abortion without
restriction up to 12 weeks’ gestation.* However, the proposal would permit
abortion at any time throughout the pregnancy if there is a risk to the
life or health of the mother or if the unborn child is diagnosed with a
condition that means they are not expected to live for long after birth.

Simons told Catholic News Service *the government proposal “also allows for
abortion on vague and undefined ‘health’ grounds, up to viability and even
up to birth, where the baby has a possible terminal illness and in other
circumstances as well.”*

“Voters who support abortion in so-called limited circumstances need to
know that what they hope for with repeal and what they’d get are two
entirely different things,” Simons said. “A vote for repeal is a vote for
abortion on demand.”

*Some 3.2 million resident Irish citizens and British citizens living in
Ireland are entitled to cast their vote on May 25.*
