Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution

Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Engagement with Ms Justice Mary Laffoy, Citizens' Assembly

1:30 pm

Ms Justice Mary Laffoy:

That was a time circumstance. Obviously, I regretted that we could not do it. In the report, we have given the committee a list of the advocacy groups that made submissions to us. All of the submissions are online. Some of them are very good and the committee might want to refer to them. The committee knows the advocacy groups that we heard from. I think the committee will be able to make a judgment itself. We have been totally transparent and we have given all the information. I would hope we covered everything, except for accidental omissions. With regard to AIMS, we did our best to get balance on that.
