answer text <p>The Government plans to ensure that arrangements for free travel for women, including minors, travelling to England from Northern Ireland to undergo an abortion will reflect the system which applies in England. Therefore, the arrangements to provide abortions in England for women from Northern Ireland will include travel and, where appropriate, accommodation for all those who meet the appropriate eligibility criteria.
