Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí (Atógáil) - Leaders' Questions (Resumed)
Dail Éireann — 2023-12-14
============================================================

Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

As I said and as the Deputy confirmed, this was sent to the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Health and that committee has now completed its report. If we did not send it to the committee, I would respectfully suggest that the Deputy would be standing here this morning asking why it was not referred to the committee and why the committee should not deal with it. We have to follow up on that report in terms of the review. I am very open to the recommendations to come from the report of the committee and the Government will give that very serious consideration.
My overriding concern involves the referendum the people passed. A set of criteria and conditions were put before the people - the referendum itself and the legislation-----
