Northern Ireland Abortion and Contraception Taskgroup (NIACT) Report

31 March 2021

The Northern Ireland Abortion and Contraception Taskgroup (NIACT) has published a new report, outlining a vision for how education and healthcare providers can support sexual and reproductive health. The report is published today (31 March 2021), one year after abortion regulations came into effect in Northern Ireland.  

Written by a multidisciplinary group of doctors, nurses, midwives, general practitioners (GPs) and academics, it recommends a new approach to relationships and sex education (RSE), contraception and abortion care.  It urges the Executive to commission and fund these services without delay.  

The British Society of Abortion Care Providers (BSACP) fully supports the NIACT Taskforce.
