One issue in the section has not been dealt with by amendment, so I need to mention it here, namely, inserting the word "maternal" in the Title of the Bill. The circumstances of the X case were about the protection of maternal life and that is what the Bill is designed to do; to provide for lawful abortion where there is a risk to the maternal life. That is why we are here. Inserting the word "maternal" into the Title provides a better reflection of the situation.
