Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Report of the Review of the Operation of the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Marie O'Shea:
Yes, definitely. The Act will still prevail on people a statutory duty to keep within its parameters, which will be actionable in the civil courts and possibly actionable, depending on whether there is a survivor after birth, under the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act, so there is law that would protect the public.
