A four-months-pregnant 17-year-old has gone to the High Court to challenge a decision by the Health Service Executive to stop her leaving the State for an abortion. The foetus has encephaly and cannot survive outside the womb.

Choice Ireland have called a rally in support of Miss D's right to travel for an abortion, and to demand that all parties commit to legislating for the X case.

The rally will take place this Saturday at noon in front of the GPO. Planning will take place on Tuesday evening from 6 to 8 pm in Seomra Spraoi, 6 Lower Ormond Quay. Ring the top bell.

Choice Ireland is a Dublin-based pro-choice activist group.
