I second the proposed amendment regarding Senator Warfield's Bill on naming the children’s hospital after Dr. Kathleen Lynn. She is my personal hero and, as Senator Warfield said, she was one of the founders of St. Ultan's Hospital, the first infant hospital in Ireland. She was motivated by the abject poverty and treatment of women in this country. It was interesting that the Catholic Church eventually ensured that the hospital was shut down because Dr. Lynn was telling women about reproductive rights at the time.

I am happy to second the amendment. I realise the Seanad has passed motions twice on this issue. Sinn Féin now believes it is important to bring forward legislation so that rather than just putting words behind our support for naming the hospital after Dr. Kathleen Lynn, we actually implement that decision.

Hear, hear.
