Safe Access to Termination of Pregnancy Services Bill 2021: Report and Final Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2022-04-07
============================================================

Sharon Keogan (IND), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I thank the Acting Chairperson and the Minister of State for being patient with my amendments. I thank my colleagues. It takes work as an Independent to table amendments. All of the arguments I have made today in favour of the amendments are valid. They certainly were not made to run down the clock. I take my work very seriously. My only issue is to protect the right to assembly, the right to protest and our right to prayer in public places. As long as there is breath in me I will defend these rights.
