Birth Information and Tracing Bill 2022: Report Stage (Resumed) and Final Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-06-15
============================================================

Lynn Ruane (IND), University of Dublin

Amendment No. 38 seeks to ensure a public information campaign held under section 60 is undertaken in an accessible manner. On Committee Stage, our amendments, which would have required a public information campaign to be held in line with the Government's commitment to the use of plain English, were ruled out of order.
Amendment No. 40 provides the Minister shall ensure any public information campaign conducted under this section is conducted in a manner consistent with the State's obligations under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, UNCRPD. These amendments are to ensure the public information campaign is held in an accessible manner and that any future public information campaign also complies with the State's obligation under the UNCRPD.
