Question:

32. Deputy Joan Collins asked the Minister for Health how he is making the Health (Termination of Pregnancy Services) (Safe Access Zones) Bill 2023 a priority, to have it in operation by Christmas 2023 (details supplied). [40652/23]

Written answers

Safe Access Zones legislation was prioritised for publication in the Government’s Summer legislative programme, and a Bill was published at the end of June. This Bill was initiated in the Houses in early July and is currently at Second Stage in Dail Eireann. Subject to the Parliamentary timetable it is my intention to progress this legislation through the Houses as expeditiously as possible and to have it enacted by the end of the year.
