Ms Jennifer Schweppe: No problem. I am expecting a baby. What is inside my body is unborn; it is a foetus. It is not a baby; babies are born. One expects the baby to come out of one's body. Once it does so, then it is a baby. I am also not a mother. I do not have any other children, therefore, I am a pregnant woman. When we use very emotive language like "mother" and "baby", it...

Seanad: Mother and Baby Institutions Payment Scheme Bill 2022: Report Stage (14 Jun 2023)

Lynn Ruane: In that case I will come back to the co-located sites. We have the mother and baby home aspect. We are saying that the legislation only recognises the mother and baby home aspect.

Again I go back to the fact that what a person experienced on the hospital site does not have anything to do...
