Can I put the question? I will read it out as a question. If anyone has a difficulty, of course, we will not rush it. It states:

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.

We are getting rid of the rest of motion 34.

Those in favour, say "Tá".
