WE ARE STILL WAITING……….and you can help
The Coroner’s (Amendment) Bill 2018, which would see Mandatory Inquests for all Maternal deaths in Ireland passed the 3rd stage of scrutiny in the Dáil in 2018 and the minister for justice and equality Charles Flanagan promised it would proceed to the 4th stage by the end of January 2019.
This date passed as did the next promised date of the end of February with nothing progressed!
In light of recent Maternal deaths and in the knowledge that statistics dictate others in the coming months it is vital that the passage of the Coroners (Amendment) Bill 2018 into law is treated as an urgent matter in the Dáil. This is important to the families involved, to families who are reliving the Maternal death of their loved one but also to all families in Ireland who are living in fear of their loved ones giving birth in Ireland.
We have all been emailing Minister Flanagan charles.flanagan@oireachtas.ie to no avail.
However would you now be able to email the chief whip Sean Kyne who has influence over the agenda in the Dáil asking for this bill to be heard as early as possible? his email is: sean.kyne@oireachtas.ie . If you could cc the Ceann Comhairle ceann.comhairle@oireachtas.ie who can also have influence and Breda Burke who is the secretary of the Business Committee Breda.Burke@oireachtas.ie it would be great.
You will find a template letter in a post below in case you are short on time to compose your own.
Many many thanks in advance
