Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Review of Scope and Structure of Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act: Engagement with Minister for Health
Stephen Donnelly (Wicklow, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
The consideration of any legislation, which this is, falls to the Oireachtas. The Oireachtas is empowered to consider any legislation before it. However, I agree with the Deputy's position that the major policy issues, relating to the three days, 12 weeks and so on, have been voted on clearly in a referendum, with much of this detail pre-published for exactly the reasons the Deputy stated.
