The witness is actually answering my next question. We have had a lot of experts in here to discuss the Citizens' Assembly recommendations. Practically all referred to the need for enhanced sexual education as a way of addressing and reducing crisis pregnancies. Children do a lot online and many nearly live online, which is regrettable. Most are on social media. It is an evolving medium and something that children are nearly ahead of us on. Is that something that the witnesses are considering in their policies?
