Roderic O'Gorman (GP), Dublin West

As I said in reply to Deputy Sherlock, research has been commissioned following the amendment tabled by Deputy Bacik's colleagues in the Seanad, particularly regarding leave for women who have suffered miscarriages, especially prior to 24 weeks.
As the Deputy will be aware, women who are subject to a miscarriage are able to avail of maternity leave. That research is taking place in three separate phases and we will look to have the results of that later next year. We will then look to take steps in furtherance of what that research determines.
