I do not want to stop anyone speaking. I interject because the clerk and Deputy Clare Daly have come up with a motion that may work. Sometimes we have discussed matters and come up with motions, which is a helpful way to do it. It is:

That the Committee recommend that surgical terminations may only be legally carried out in a hospital or licensed clinic, and that medical terminations should be provided for through the licensing of medications for that purpose and prescribed by a qualified practitioner. Where terminations occur in such settings, no criminal sanctions should apply.
