Figures published by the Department of Health show 6,577 medical procedures were carried out under the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act last year.
The figure is a slight decrease on 2019, when a total of 6,666 notifications were received.
The annual report shows that 20 procedures were carried out due to a risk to life or health; five due to a risk to life or health in an emergency situation; 97 due to a fatal foetal anomaly; and 6,455 in early pregnancy under the grounds set out in Section 12 of the act.
Dublin was the county of residence in the case of 2,414 notifications received, 645 cited Cork and 278 cited Limerick.
The county cited in fewest notifications was Leitrim, with only 28 noting it as the county of residence of the pregnant woman.
The data showed that Northern Ireland was the place of residence notified in 36 cases, while eight notifications recorded the place of residence as another location outside of Ireland.
The Health Service Executive has also submitted a report, which shows that two applications for review were made to the Executive in 2020.
One of the applications was found to have met the requirements for a lawful termination of pregnancy.
