Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2016 (12 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: That would be useful, if Mr. Nolan would not mind. Who incurs the costs on the M1 and the M4? Is it the operator or TII? I am talking about the actual means of collection of costs.

Catherine Murphy: How many toll arrangements are in place for which TII does not receive any benefit? Is it regarded as a benefit or a liability?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Crisis Pregnancy and Primary Care: Irish College of General Practitioners (12 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: I thank the witnesses for coming in as when somebody is pregnant, the doctors are working at the coalface. They are the first port of call. Doctors operate within a legal framework of an equal right to life rather than a right to health. Doctors are supposed to be looking after the health of a patient, which is incredibly difficult. We might consider matters such as gestational limits....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Crisis Pregnancy and Primary Care: Irish College of General Practitioners (12 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: What would be the effect of medical ethics in addition to the legal framework? If, for example, the eighth amendment to the Constitution was deleted next year and we had a transition period, how would medical ethics deal with this issue?

I presume in that scenario there would be ongoing continuity of care. What we are discussing is really at odds with how medical care is carried out.

Water Services Bill 2017: Second Stage (Resumed) (17 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: It is probably a bit surreal that we are still in this Chamber speaking about the same matter, as it seems to arise every single year. It was in 2012 or 2013 that it began. On occasions, because the Government had such a big majority, it essentially rammed through legislation. I remember one particular occasion, just before the Christmas recess, when the entire Opposition walked out to try...
