Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

The people decided in the referendum and governments and political parties of all persuasions must uphold the decision of the people in terms of legislating for what was decided in a constitutional referendum. That said, a range of measures have been provided for and funded. Free contraception up to the age of 35 is a significant measure and an enhancement of what went before. There have been many interventions in education and so forth in dealing with this issue. There has been a substantial reduction in teen pregnancies, for example, because of a range of measures.
