I thank our guests for the presentation. Is the organisation satisfied that policing of the situation under current law is satisfactory? If there was decriminalisation and this country adopted the Swedish model, what would be the effect on Garda resources, for example, which are currently diminishing, and the supports and resources from health and other support groups? Would there be an improvement? What is the witness's view on the changes? What is the current situation on the ground? If there were changes, would there be sufficient Garda resources to enforce the law and sufficient HSE resources to provide assistance and help to the women? Would there be a seismic change in the level of support in that regard or would there still be a lack of resources?
