Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Bill 2018: Report Stage (Resumed) (5 Dec 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: Unfortunately, the amendment in front of us does not incorporate the wording that is in the Medical Council guidelines. Of course, if the Minister agreed in principle, that issue could be dealt with very simply. The Minister could give us an undertaking here that when he goes to the Seanad, he will bring forward an amendment that would bring what he says is there, what I accept is there and...

Éamon Ó Cuív: I hope not to take the full seven minutes. I also hope to bring some rationality to what is happening.

My understanding is that, under the amendment as drafted, one would have to go to the High Court where the...

Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Bill 2018: Report Stage (Resumed) (29 Nov 2018)

Éamon Ó Cuív: I was very disappointed with Deputy O’Connell’s contribution. It seems rather than debating the issues her approach was to attack motives and allege total ignorance with no examination of the issues. I have great respect for Deputy Harty. He strikes me as one of the most caring of people. I bow to his knowledge. I accept that, until now, the entire practise of medicine has...
