Strong elements in Government, particularly
in the Labour Party, are pressing hard to have abortion legalised.
They are doing everything to create the impression that Ireland
is obliged to legislate for abortion following the recent European
court ruling in A, B and C v. Ireland. The judgment, however,
in no way forces Ireland to legalise abortion. In fact, it respects
the entitlement of the Irish people to determine legal policy
on protecting the lives of unborn children.
Before the General Election, Fine Gael gave written commitments
to oppose abortion legislation and destructive research on living
human embryos. Labour, however, is pressuring them to renege
on these promises. To ensure Fine Gael holds steadfast to its
commitments, your FG Oireachtas representatives need to
hear from you.

Efforts like this are vitally
important from time to time and can make all the difference.
