Ms Marie O'Shea:

Certainly at the moment they do not. There is no foetal medicine specialist employed by the State at the moment. When I was writing this report, the National Maternity Hospital was employing one out of its own finances, namely, Dr. Sam Doyle, and her appointment was regarded as a game changer. Even in that context and even where there is a perfect diagnostic system, I am led to believe it is still virtually impossible to say how long, if the baby survives the birth, he or she will live.
