Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

New National Maternity Hospital: Discussion

Mr. John O'Donoghue:

As the Deputy mentioned, there are views on CPO. There are views that the CPO powers under the health legislation are potentially unconstitutional and would require a potential amendment to legislation. The opinion the Deputy mentioned may have referred to those. If the constitutional issues can be overcome, through the amending legislation the Houses would have to pass, and one then tries go through the process-----
