I thank the witnesses for their presentation this afternoon. Before I start my questioning, I want to talk about human rights and the right to life. I am talking about the right to life of the child in the womb. Ms Logan has qualified something and seems to be putting more of a weighting on the existing life rather than pre-life. I am referring to where Ms Logan finished off on the last statement. Can she expand on exactly what she has said? It will bring me to further questions about the right of human life.
