Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2024-03-07
============================================================

Jerry Buttimer (CC), Labour Panel

It is about respecting the House. I will be fair in the Chair, and the Senator knows I respect him hugely. The Minister will be given the opportunity to speak. If the Senator wishes to reply or rebut if he thinks he needs to do so, I will call him again. Name calling by anybody on any side does not serve anybody's cause. Let us have a sensible and sensitive debate, cognisant of the deeply held views on each side. I respect that completely. I call for the Minister to reply without interruption, and I will call any Member who wishes to come back in again.
