Campaigners welcome falling numbers
A pro-life pressure group says an apparent drop in demand for abortions demonstrates the effectiveness of Manx law.
Humanity and Equality in Abortion Reform (HEAR) has welcomed news that fewer women are traveling off-Island for the procedure - down to 88 last year from over 100 in 2015.
Pro-choice campaigners CALM claim the figures do not account for a growing number of women turning to illegal home abortions.
But HEAR spokesperson Sue Richardson says evidence is needed to back that up:
Station Garage to undergo refurbishment as family owners 'taking a step back'
Man stole £50k from business woman based on the Island during Covid
Information Commissioner joins internal review of digital services used by young people
Half term weekend road closures on Kewaigue Hill
