Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Report of the Review of the Operation of the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. Catherine Conlon:
I am not sure about the level of competency in the Department of Health regarding bioethics. There is a specific bioethics unit, but I am not sure that the level of expertise as regards bioethics within that unit, including dedicated and extensive bioethics experience, broadly and applied to this area, is in place as yet.
