The "real and substantial physical risk to the life of the woman" is the crux of the issue. It is basically, "That the Committee recommends that a termination of pregnancy be lawful where there is a real and substantial physical risk to the life of the woman." Is that agreed? Agreed.
Now we will move on to reason 2. There is an amendment in the name of Deputy Mattie McGrath, motion 6. I will allow Deputy McGrath to move the motion.
