That was the case with my children when I had no capital or way to navigate the system. I have since experienced trying to navigate the system with capital. It is interesting to have been in both of those...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on International Surrogacy: Prevention of the Exploitation or Coercion of Surrogates and Intending Parents: Discussion (2 Jun 2022)

What type of therapeutic engagement is required in respect of somebody who is going to be a surrogate? Is it...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on International Surrogacy: Prevention of the Exploitation or Coercion of Surrogates and Intending Parents: Discussion (2 Jun 2022)
Lynn Ruane: Brilliant. I have one more question. Let us say there is a woman who wants to be a surrogate and who, at some point in her life, may have came into contact with any sort of service, maybe a mental health service, or may have a particular diagnosis or an invisible disability.
