The Pro Life Campaign’s application to act as an amicus curiae in the Supreme Court’s unborn rights case was rejected on 7 February 2018.

The three-judge panel said the appeal concerned a pure issue of law, with both sides already represented by experienced legal teams. It also raised concerns about the application’s timing and the risk of blurring legal arguments with wider referendum campaigning.
