Ms Orla O'Connor:

This review is a really important moment and one of the key points is that it should be centrally informed by the experiences of women. The research that is being done by Dr. Catherine Conlon in TCD, commissioned by the HSE, which is about gathering those experiences, should form a key part of this review in terms of the changes that are necessary. We know from talking to our members and to women that the changes we are bringing forward are rooted in their experience and going forward, that is exactly what needs to happen, as it does in other areas of women's health care. Women's experiences need to lead the reform.
