*Opinions on ToP in the Republic of Ireland:
Group A: I believe TOP should not be available to any woman in Ireland.
Group B: I believe TOP should only be allowed in very limited circumstances (examples could be a ‘real and substantial risk’ to the life of the mother, fatal fetal abnormality or rape).
Group C: I believe TOP should be available on request to all women.
Group D: I have no definite opinion on TOP.
NS, not significant; ToP, termination of pregnancy.
