Little progress has been made on nominating members since November, the People Before Profit TD told the Journal.
PEOPLE BEFORE PROFIT TD Gino Kenny has expressed his frustration at the Government for delays in naming members of the Oireachtas to sit on the Special Committee on Assisted Dying.
The Dublin Mid-West TD has written to Dáil Ceann Comhairle Seán Ó Feraghail this week asking him to accelerate the formation of the committee.“There’s a fair bit of frustration related to the establishment of the committee,” Kenny told The Journal. Two weeks ago Michael Healy-Rae was chosen to chair the committee, but Kenny has said that aside from Sinn Féin nominating two TDs there has been no other progress.
