Regarding women participation in extraordinary ministry (Roman-Catholic Church)

I've seen similar questions like these: * https://christianity.stackexchange.com/questions/47220/why-doesnt-the-catholic-church-ordain-women-to-be-deacons * https://christianity.stackexchange.com/questions/43770/why-does-the-roman-catholic-church-allow-girls-to-serve-the-altar but they do not cover what I want to ask here. I've recently moved to Ireland from Russia, where I was attending a Catholic Church for some time. So I have never seen women there serving on the altar (I've heard about *girls*-ministrants who handle lights, giving the censer and so on - this is quite traditional, even in the Orthodox Church girls serve on the altar sometimes). But, to be honest, I was quite shocked by seeing the local Irish Catholic tradition: women here mainly, without any liturgical vestements, are taking Communion on the altar from the Ciborium and then hand out Communion alongside the priests in the Church during mass. It looks quite shocking and resembles the Protestant church more than something traditional (These women do not have any kind of vestements, but are dressed in regular clothes with make-up and perfume). I've recently discussed this problem with my Russian Catholic friends and they said that this is some kind of malpractice, that Second Vatican Council wasn't intended to provide such a kind of extraordinary ministry where the use of laymen (here laywomen?) distributing Sacraments becomes regular practice. What can you tell me about it? Is it really an abuse of Canon?
