Pregnancy Act notifications report
Deputy McGrath asks whether the annual report required under the Protection of Life During Pregnancy Act will be laid by 1 July. The Minister does not know and directs him to await a parliamentary-question response.
I was thanking the Ceann Comhairle for his co-operation and help in all matters. I am sure the Minister appreciates that.
The Minister for Health is obliged under the Protection of Life During Pregnancy Act 2013 to lay a report before the House of the notifications he has received by the end of June each year. Will the Minister present indicate whether that report is ready? The end of June is approaching. It is a commitment in the Act under section 20(4). Will the report be laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas by next Tuesday, 1 July?

I do not know, but if Deputy Mattie McGrath tables a question I am sure he will get the answer.

Then the Deputy should wait for the answer.
