That is helpful. The three-day wait period is one of the areas of Ms O'Shea's report and one of the recommendations that got the most coverage. It seems to be more black-and-white for people. There are some who just oppose removing it. I support removing it and never saw a rationale for it in the first place. Notwithstanding my opinion on it, however, Ms O'Shea's clear recommendation is that it should be removed and that the other option is there for reflection if a woman wants it. As regards the impact of that, which is what is in contention at the moment, it would be helpful if Ms O'Shea were to outline today from her perspective what she feels the impact of removing the mandatory three-day wait period would have.
