The Health Service Executive (HSE) has released a comprehensive report detailing the expansion of abortion services in Ireland. Since the introduction of termination of pregnancy services in January 2019, access has significantly increased.
According to the HSE’s first report of this kind, more than 10,800 abortions were recorded in 2024 alone. This figure highlights the growing availability and utilisation of these services in recent years.
The data reflects a broader trend of expanded reproductive healthcare options, following legislative changes that have facilitated greater access to abortion services nationwide.
Healthcare officials emphasize the importance of continued support and resources to ensure safe and accessible abortion care for all who need it.
