Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (Covid-19) Bill 2020: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2020-03-26
============================================================

Bríd Smith (PBP), Dublin South-Central

Will the Minister please explain why he thinks this is not relevant to the emergency legislation? What means will he put in place to deal with crisis pregnancies where women cannot attend their doctors because of possible contamination and where it is impossible to get a doctor's visit which includes two visits within three days? What we are asking for here is telemedicine. Will he explain why all of these amendments were ruled out of order and what provisions he intends to put in place in their stead?
