Northern Ireland's Catholic bishops have expressed shock at a High Court ruling on abortion yesterday.
A judge in Belfast ruled that the right to an abortion should be extended if a woman is sexually assaulted or if the foetus has a fatal illness.

The case was brought by the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission.
In a statement, the Catholic Bishops have expressed their profound shock and claim it means the life of some children "is more worthy of our protection, love and care than others".
