Previous Day
15:22 The High Court today granted a pregnant 17-year-old girl in care the right to travel to the UK for an abortion. The girl, known as Miss D, is almost 18 weeks pregnant with a baby with a major brain defect. In a ruling issued this afternoon the court said that Miss D can travel outside of the country for an abortion. Mr Justice Liam McKechnie ruled there is no statutory or constitutional impediment against allowing her to leave the country for an abortion. Miss D wished to have her baby until she learned on April 23rd last that it has anencephaly, a condition where a major part of the brain is missing and where it has a prognosis of three days survival after birth.
