The moment theology is open to expediency and ethics are not regarded as sacrosanct, one will no longer be able to decide what are ethics. As a counter argument to a remark from this side of the House, a Senator stated that we would not allow embryonic stem cell research in Ireland because we have not yet decided whether it is ethical or not but that it was no reason to prevent it happening in another part of the world. This is a case where ethics are being subjected to expediency. No one has the right, on behalf of the people, to use ethics in this manner. I am not personalising this in terms of the Minister, rather I refer to it in a general sense.
