Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution

Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Engagement with Ms Justice Mary Laffoy, Citizens' Assembly

1:30 pm

Ms Sharon Finegan:

I do not. One of the mechanisms we could have used to establish that would have been to ask the citizens in advance but we did not do that, for obvious reasons. Ms Justice Laffoy and I consciously did not engage with the citizens on this topic. We had ongoing discussions with them about the administration, the set-up and so on but we saw what anybody watching from the outside would have seen.
