Catherine Murphy: I have a question for Dr. Aiken. Is it fair to say women using Women on Web might not disclose an underlying health condition because they risk not getting the medication, which may well put them at risk? How is this evaluated? Is it evaluated afterwards? What controls can be put in place?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Health Care Issues Arising from the Citizens' Assembly Recommendations: Masters of the National Maternity Hospital, Holles Street and the Rotunda Hospital (11 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: The witnesses are very welcome to the committee and I thank them for their papers and giving us the benefit of their expertise. My first question is for both witnesses. Dr. Mahony said that about one third of hospitals do not provide a certain type of screening. Is the eighth amendment any influencer on that or is that just related to how we deliver health care?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Health Care Issues Arising from the Citizens' Assembly Recommendations: Masters of the National Maternity Hospital, Holles Street and the Rotunda Hospital (11 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: I totally agree with Dr. Mahony on that. In terms of the issue of criminalisation, I found myself, probably like others, faced with whether we supported legislation after not being able to amend it. I can understand why it would be incredibly difficult to work in that kind of an environment and make the judgment calls in real time. That legislation was around legislating for what is in...

Catherine Murphy: I want to ask Professor Malone about the point he made about limitations, gestational limits, and that it is something that should be a clinical issue as opposed to something that is set down. He was talking in the context of foetal abnormalities, but does he believe that should be the approach generally or only in the context in which he was speaking?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution: Health Care Issues Arising from the Citizens' Assembly Recommendations: Masters of the National Maternity Hospital, Holles Street and the Rotunda Hospital (11 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: On the issue of continuity of care, prior to the legislation I travelled to Liverpool and it was helpful meeting the team there. One of the questions one of the group asked was whether there was a difference between Irish women and women from the UK attending. This was in the context of Doctors for Choice in regard to foetal abnormalities. The response was that the one difference they...

Financial Resolution No. 2: Stamp Duties (10 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: The proposal is reasonably sensible and we will support it. I have a number of questions. I am also confused about the land. In his contribution, the Minister may well have said something about leases on agricultural land; I am not sure if I picked that up correctly. For example, what is calculated as being the likely refunds? Has a calculation been done on the cohort of land that would...

Financial Resolutions 2018 - Budget Statement 2018 (10 Oct 2017)

Catherine Murphy: I am sharing time with Deputies Eamon Ryan and Seamus Healy. This Government does a lot of talking about opportunities. Today was an opportunity for bold and brave vision, and an opportunity to take Ireland on new path.
