Question:
To ask the Minister of Health following reports on Monday 28 November 2016 that the working group on fatal foetal abnormality has recommended legislative change in cases of fatal foetal abnormality, whether she will publish immediately the working group's report.

Answer:

As I indicated in the Assembly Chamber, the report has been shared with the First and deputy First Ministers and the Justice Minister and I intend to submit joint proposals to the Executive early in the new year.

It remains our intention to publish the document after it has been considered by the Executive.
