I thank Dr. McCarthy for his evidence. It has been most helpful. I apologise for missing some of it, but I had to speak in the Chamber. Since some of my questions may have been answered, I will try to move through them quickly.

What percentage of women suffer from perinatal mental health issues during or post pregnancy? Is there any indication of that figure?
