Sharon Keogan: Now is fine. I thank the Acting Chairperson and appreciate that he has changed that around for me. I thank the Minister for once again coming into this Chamber to listen to us.

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Jul 2021)
Sharon Keogan: I do not want Fianna Fáil to abandon everything that has made us the nation that we are. Whether one likes it or not, we have a Christian ethos.

Look how far we have come in the past 20...

Sharon Keogan: On a point of order, Senator Seery Kearney said that the end result for women with cervical cancer is a hysterectomy. Even after they have had that procedure, however, the Department of Health continues to send them cervical screening reminders for years.
- Seanad: CervicalCheck Tribunal (Amendment) Bill 2021: Second Stage (15 Jul 2021)
Sharon Keogan: We would appreciate it if the Minister could stop that happening. It can be very distressing for women who have had hysterectomies to get continued reminders to go for cervical screening.
