Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

General Scheme of the Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services (Safe Access Zones)) Bill 2022: An Garda Síochána

Ms Anne Marie McMahon:

Not necessarily, because all these steps would happen in close proximity. The warning would be given to leave the area and desist from whatever behaviour, and if that were not complied with, the next step would fall immediately into place. The challenge for us with this legislation, on the converse of that, is that if somebody leaves location A and moves to location B, he or she will have complied with the warning but shifted location in terms of breaching the law. Ms Mulkerrins might wish to come in there.
