Annie Hoey (Labour) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Minister for his attendance. Many of the questions I had intended to ask have been covered. I am seeking clarification on the differences between the policy and the operation of the legisaltion.

Things such as the 12-week limit and so forth would be considered policy issues and the Minister said earlier that those issues are to be decided by the Oireachtas and voted on by Members of both Houses. Does the Minister therefore see this review process making recommendations that he will then follow up and put to the Houses to amend the legislation regarding things such as the 12-week limit or the three-day wait period, if that is what comes from it? I want to be absolutely clear on this. Will the Minister then propose those amendments to the legislation to the Houses?
