"While they are in the UK, ostensibly as tourists, they will be buting food, accommodation, transport - all of which are good for the economy. "
Good God, even a staunch capitalist I cannot comprehend how anyone can consider it being good to make money from this dreadful situation. Have some decorum Gromit.

Ymb,
I am not encouraging abortion tourism, but it is a fact. The question was about the financial drain on the NHS (there isn’t one) so it is fair to counter that with an economic argument the other way, that tourism is good for the country.
I do not consider that bad taste. If anything I will be glad when this economic benefit goes away if Ireland vote to change the law to allow abortions in their country.

I think that you should think again, it is a big drain on the NHS, you have already stated that you are not encouraging abortion tourism.
It is not only these abortions but also all the other overseas medical and surgical tourism cases that we carry out for those from overseas, most of which we are never paid for.

I don’t think you have understood the answers.
Tourists from the Irish Republic do not get free abortions on the NHS, they have to pay Private Clinics.
British Taxpayers from Northern Ireland are entitled to abortions on the British mainland. Because they have paid into the NHS like other UK taxpayers.
Abortion of Irish foetus’ is not adding to the NHS burden.

/// Until now, women from Northern Ireland accessing abortion in Great Britain were forced to pay about £900 for the procedure. Northern Ireland has some of the most restrictive abortion laws in Europe and it is almost impossible for a women to have an abortion legally there. Even in cases of rape, incest and fatal foetal abnormalities abortions remain illegal. ///

Please concentrate.
Northern Ireland is in the UK.
It pays UK taxes, and that pays for the NHS.
Northern Irish women are entitled to the same NHS services as the rest of the UK.
Abortion is not a service available in NI, so they can come to another part of the UK where it is, to have the treatment. They have paid for it, so the NHS is not out of pocket.

The charge was removed in all three countries last year which is why it is now free for Ulster women to have abortions in GB.
