Opening of First Specialist Service for Treatment of FGM
09 May 2014
Senator Bacik was delighted to attend the opening by Minister Alex White of the new FGM (Female Genital Mutilation) Specialist Treatment Care Service now available for the first time in the IFPA's Dublin city centre clinic.
"I commend all the work done on this by the IFPA, Akidwa and others, and am very proud that the legislation prohibiting FGM in Ireland originated in a private members bill that I introduced in the Seanad in 2010."
