February 03, 2021 Breakfast Briefing 3rd February 2021- Sinead Gibney IHREC
Ireland's human rights watchdog says proposed legislation for assisted dying "needs significant change".
The Human Rights and Equality Commission says the 'Dying with Dignity Bill' falls short when it comes to issues like safeguarding and consent.
The bill, which is currently going through the Oireachtas, would allow a person with a terminal illness seek medical help to end their life.
The watchdog's Chief Commissioner, Sinead Gibney, joined Shane Beatty on Breakfast Briefing:

February 02, 2021 Breakfast Briefing 2nd February 2021- Ged Nash TD
The Labour Party has called on all insurers to consider offering a rebate as a gesture of goodwill for Irish customers.
It says such a move would reflect the reality that insurers are processing fewer claims, as people continue to heed public health advice and stay at home.

The European Medicines Agency is due to decide today whether to approve another Covid-19 vaccine.
It will meet to consider if the AstraZeneca vaccine can be used in the EU - allowing the rollout to start in Ireland in the coming weeks.
But the company's in an ongoing row with the EU over a 60 per cent shortfall in the delivery of doses.
Germany's vaccine committee says it shouldn't be used on over 65s.

The Taoiseach will address the first ever remote AGM of the Irish Farmers Association today.
It will focus on the EU's new Common Agricultural Policy budget, which will be negotiated this year.
Farmers could lose up to 30 per cent of their annual payment if they don't engage in eco-friendly schemes.
IFA president Tim Cullinan says he wants Micheál Martin to ensure the measure is not introduced.
