I apologise to the witnesses for having to leave to go to the Seanad for a vote. I thank them for being here.

I address this question to all three witnesses. Based on Dr. Boylan's presentation in which he suggests the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution is unworkable in 2017, do the other witnesses agree with him? Will Dr. Boylan elaborate a bit more on that please?
