R (A and B) v Sos for Health [2017] UKSC 41 SEP 25, 2017by MLCLEAVERin JUDICIAL REVIEW Abortion is a controversial subject in Northern Ireland and is only available in a narrow range of circumstances. This means that a lot of women have to travel to England where they can pay for an abortion. In this judicial review case A had travelled to Manchester and paid £900 for an abortion but argued that, as a resident of the UK, this should have been made freely available to her on the NHS. While this case was, in theory, only about NHS policy it has wider ethical implications and also tells us a lot about devolution in the UK. Music from bensound.com
