I acknowledge the work of former Deputy Clare Daly in respect of the Bill and the work of Dr. Jo Murphy-Lawless, now retired, who was an excellent proponent of this legislation. There were too many other women to mention. The impact of the subject matter, as articulated by people such as Vicky Conway in The Irish Timesof late, had a tremendous effect on all of us. I acknowledge those women who have passed away. We think of them as we promulgate the legislation.
