The more experience that regulatory authority gets, the better it will get at...
- Seanad: Health (Assisted Human Reproduction) Bill 2022: Committee Stage (20 Jun 2024)
Mary Seery Kearney: I am staying to the amendments. There has been an issue cast over people who may go to domestic surrogacy and a characterisation of anybody at international.

- Committee on Drugs Use: Drug Use Policy: HSE, Department of Justice and Department of Health (20 Jun 2024)
Mary Seery Kearney: I am late to the meeting so I apologise if I ask questions that have already been.
