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:
I am not aware of any actions that have been taken. I refer to the Whelan and Mellet cases. It has to be clear to a person when they are eligible to receive abortion and it certainly is not clear under the grounds of sections 9 to 11, inclusive, and I think that is potentially challengeable.
