Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 February 2026
1166. Deputy Carol Nolan asked the Minister for Health the number of claims settled by the State Claims Agency which related to the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018, per year, from 2019 to 2025; the number of ongoing claims, in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [12270/26]
View answerThe State Claims Agency (SCA) has a statutory remit to manage personal injury and third-party property damage claims on behalf of State authorities.
The SCA has provided me with the information set out below.
The information was extracted from NIMS, the National Incident Management System. This report is correct as of 12/02/26.
The SCA has two ongoing claims from persons alleging that their unborn baby was wrongfully diagnosed with a condition sufficient to bring them within the scope of the Health Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy Act 2018. It is inappropriate to provide the years of claims, as to do so could have the effect of identifying individual cases.
