| Description | The Taoiseach has pledged to set up a citizens’ convention to discuss possible changes to the Constitution on abortion within six months of taking office, if Fine Gael is returned to power after the general election.
Speaking in London following a meeting of the British-Irish Council, Enda Kenny said that such a convention should allow citizens and politicians to discuss the issue “in a thorough, broad, respectful and comprehensive manner”.
“If a consensus can be reached at the end of that process. I have every respect for the views of people and will therefore allow them a free vote,” he said. |
