1482: Rebekha Sharkie MP on Why She Broke Down in Parliament

Federal Member for Mayo Rebekha Sharkie has been brought to tears
in Parliament talking about her family’s experience with
mitochondrial disease, 



In the hope of passing Maeve's Law in the coming days, the Centre
Alliance member spoke on Monday about her grandson Liam who was
born premature in February 2021 due to an extremely rare form of
mitochondrial disease, phosphoglycerate kinase deficiency.



Another issue being debated in Parliament today is the
contentious Religious Discrimination Bill.



Ms Sharkie joins Jennie Lenman in this podcast to discuss both
issues.
