Question:
To ask the Minister of Justice how the working group on fatal foetal abnormality differs from previous policy development processes taken by her Department.

Answer:

Previous policy development was undertaken unilaterally by the Department of Justice. The current working group operates on an inter-Departmental basis with the Department of Health and its terms of reference focus on health care provision for women with a diagnosis of fatal fetal abnormality.
