I thank Professor Pajkrt and Professor Gevers for their presentations. I would like to follow up on Senator Ruane's questions about better sex education and the importance of contraception awareness. Do the witnesses believe that there have been reductions in the numbers of teenage pregnancies and teenage abortions in the Netherlands? I note that the majority of those who seek abortions are older women. Can the witnesses confirm that the numbers of teenage pregnancies and teenage abortions have decreased as a direct result of the improvements in sex education? Do they believe such a correlation exists?
