I have a couple of points. At the beginning of her presentation, Dr. Conlon spoke about barriers to care. One of the issues mentioned was how the service is free only to women who have a PPS number. Does Dr. Conlon have any suggestions, or has anything been done since her review, in regard to this? It is an important area concerning women who are isolated, vulnerable or from marginalised groups and so on. What is the ask in that regard?
