Everybody here seems to agree that it would be wrong to suggest a decision to go to Britain. I think Deputy O'Sullivan talked about "necessary non-directive". Even that is very undefined. I did not succeed in getting the HSE crisis pregnancy programme representatives last week to define directive counselling. We have a Constitution that protects the unborn. Ms McDermott has been very eloquent about how she could not have foreseen how she could cope. That is one big plank of her argument about why abortion should not be provided. I think I am not misrepresenting her when I say she also believes that John, in her case, had rights irrespective of how she felt. Is that correct?
