Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

New National Maternity Hospital: Discussion

Professor Mary Higgins:

She left a legacy whereby we have learned more about sepsis. We have changed the law twice based on her experience, both in protection of life and termination of pregnancy. We must honour her life by continuing this practice.
