Ms Marie O'Shea:

I do not believe it serves any particular purpose. I believe the monitoring and evaluation framework and what is being developed by the HSE national women and infants health programme, NWIHP, office is far more helpful because that would determine policy going forward and what needs to be done in the gaps and to make the situation safer. I do not understand why information is being collected on when the termination took place and the county the people were in.
