Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution

Termination in Cases of Foetal Abnormality: Mr. Peter Thompson, Birmingham Women's and Children's Hospital

1:30 pm

Mr. Peter Thompson:

I am uncertain as to the exact number of centimetres a 24-week foetus would measure. If I were to say it is too small or otherwise, I might be misleading the committee.
