Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: General Scheme of the Thirty-eighth Amendment of the Constitution (Role of Women) Bill: Discussion (19 Sep 2018)

The options presented by Dr. Laura Cahillane are very clear. We either take out the provision and include one that is symbolic or we put something in that gives more economic and social rights. I am...
