I thank the delegates for their presentations. I will begin with Professor Arulkumaran. Unfortunately, we are coming up to the fifth anniversary of Savita's death. There are still people who claim that her death had nothing to do with the law but rather with mismanagement in the particular hospital. I want to nail that one right now. In the recommendations made in Professor Arulkumaran's report he said: "We also believe that legislative factors affected medical considerations in this case and that this resulted in a failure to offer all management options to the patient". Is that correct?
