With only 11 of the 165 proposed amendments completed…

The Government has easily won the first two Dáil votes on amendments to the Protection of Life During Pregnancy Bill.

Minister of State Lucinda Creighton indicated during the debate that she could not support the legislation, but she has not as yet voted against the Government.

The other Fine Gael TDs whose votes had been in doubt – John O’Mahoney, Michelle Mulherrin and John-Paul Phelan – all indicated they would be voting with the Government. It is expected to resume at 4pm this afternoon.
