I thank the Minister for his response. I am trying to get clarity on the right to terminate a potentially viable foetus. The Minister said that the legislation clearly states there is not a right to terminate a potentially viable foetus. Will he clarify where that is in the Bill? I have not found it. That specific provision is very important in respect of some of the concerns that have been expressed about this Bill. Perhaps the Minister will identify it for me, because I seem to have missed it.
