In this month’s ARINS Podcast host Rory Montgomery interviews Dr Andrea Mulligan, Trinity College Dublin, and Dr Clayton Ó Néill, Queens University Belfast, authors of Health Law: Convergence and Divergence on the Island of Ireland. The authors identify the formation of health law north and south across public and private law and the constitutional, policy, and legislative changes that have shaped and re-shaped healthcare in both jurisdictions. Specifically, the implementation of laws north and south regarding healthcare rights and capacity law, the ability to consent and refuse medical treatment, the specific requirements, and interpretations of conscientious objection to abortion, discrimination and disability, and the development of criminal negligence law in both jurisdictions. 

This is episode 30 of a podcast series that provides evidence-based research and analysis on the most significant questions of policy and public debate facing the island of Ireland, north and south.

Host Rory Montgomery, MRIA, talks to authors of articles on topics such as cross border health co-operation; the need to regulate social media in referendums, education, cultural affairs and constitutional questions and the imperative for good data and the need to carry out impartial research.
