Lord Rogan – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Rogan on 2015-12-07.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government under what circumstances, if any, a resident of Northern Ireland who seeks an abortion in Great Britain is required to pay for the operation.

Lord Prior of Brampton

Health is a devolved matter. Residents of Northern Ireland are entitled to access abortion services in England but, in general, they must make their own private arrangements for so doing.
