Demonstrators call for relaxation of maternity restrictions By Kevin O Mahony
That was the message from a group of protestors outside Holles Street this afternoon.
For more than a year now, partners haven’t been able to attend antenatal visits, early labour, or post-natal appointments in hospitals.
Krysia Lynch, the Chair of the Association for the Improvement of Maternity Services: I could go to Penneys today if I wanted to; I can go and book my facial in Arnotts. But if I was having an induction I would have to stay here for 48 hours and my partner wouldn t be able to attend with me .
