Stephen Donnelly EVERYONE HAS A right to be treated with dignity and respect when accessing medical care.
These demonstrations can cause anxiety and distress to those accessing and providing services. They seek to intimidate and deter women from accessing these services – and our healthcare workers from providing them.A recent study seeking to elicit the experiences of those who accessed, or attempted to access an abortion in Ireland reported that one in seven participants said they encountered anti-abortion activity while attempting to access abortion care.
This means it would be illegal to harass, insult, or seek to influence those attending these healthcare services, or the staff working in them. Consistent with this approach, the Safe Access Zone legislation will not highlight the specific service sites where termination of pregnancy services are actively provided. We propose to designate safe access zones around sites that can provide termination of pregnancy services in accordance with the Act of 2018, not just those that do. There will be safeguards to ensure that only those who make an intentional decision to engage in prohibited conduct within a safe zone are criminalised.
Well done to all the protesters
All peaceful protest should be allowed. Slaughtering little babies should carry a life sentence

good, about time
Intimidation should be illegal in all cases
and yet 16 century god botherer DavQuinn thinks it's criminal to prevent people screaming at women what to do with their bodies.
Wouldn't be very profitable if God forbid a woman changed her mind. Got to keep that moola rolling, 450 euro per murder, a very lucrative business.
Over to Iona now to explain why this is a form of genocide or something.
BAN ALL IMAGINARY FRIENDS FFS
Not before time.
Praying is not intimidation, just another attack by globalist progressive Ireland on free speech, and freedom of religion...ho hum.
All he needs to do now is protect the born among us. It’s clear DonnellyStephen has very little interest in that concept.
I thought men can get pregnant too? Careful now Stephen, or the woke mob will get you.
Not before time. “Soon” better mean like tomorrow!
Praying a rosary outside a medical centre is NOT intimidation, it is peaceful prayer for both mother and baby.
Rightly so. The people of Ireland had their say, and it was unequivocal. Those who want to intimidate can intimidate themselves with their own intimidating company they will never be able to run away from.
About time 👏 get on with it.
No law can override your right to protest... Just because you use positive law does not make it of any worth.. DonnellyStephen should be in prison for rolling out a deadly weapon on this island in the guise of healthcare...
Next up: 'Anti protest zones' within 200m of any TD. Guess it suits the clapping seals with pronouns and flags in their bios
How many Gardaí are going to be on ‘prayer prevention’ detail?
Another nail in the coffin of freedom of speech and the right to protest
Stop noticing that we're killing our children reeeeeeeeee
A police state by FF & FG politicians who r happy murdering the unborn, dr getting 450 blood money, I'll remember u wasters. Bankrupt the country have the working people paying the taxes, the bums on the dole going on 3 holidays a Yr. We can't build a few houses, destroyed this.
About time. About feckin' time. Get on with it, man! SafeAccessZones
At this rate, FreeSpeech will soon be illegal.
Great xxx
The sooner the better
'Soon'. Ah sure, take your time...🙄
