Health (Assisted Human Reproduction) Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-06-20
============================================================

Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

I will address this one more time. What Senator Sherlock stated is simply false. The Senator stated that some of the people she has referenced - and I have not used any names in here - were not consulted. I can tell the Senator categorically there was extensive consultation with at least one of the people she referenced. It was an extensive consultation. Unfortunately, it is not true that there was no consultation with the experts in the private sector. There was extensive technical ongoing consultation on a great many of these issues.
