Mr. Peter Thompson:

There have been court challenges. There was one that did not get to court where the Crown Prosecution Service examined a case of a termination of pregnancy because of a cleft lip.

There was considerable publicity about that at the time. It is easy to quote the very rare occasions when these things happen - they are very rare and that is the only one I can think of at present - but what I hope the committee would do is frame a law that would work 99.9% of the time and would be good for the women of this country in general, not concentrate on the 0.01%.
