In line with the conversation we had earlier, after each motion we will put another question to the committee regarding the position of the Citizens' Assembly. We will now move on to motion 3, in the name of Deputy O'Connell. She has proposed a substitute motion 3, which encompasses the original motions 3, 4 and 5. As no new issue is being raised in substitute motion 3, I am accepting it for consideration. It will now be discussed with motions 4, 5, 7 to 9, inclusive and 10 to 17, inclusive, all of which deal with the risk to the life or health of the woman. I should advise that if substitute motion 3 is accepted, motions 4, 5, 7 to 9, inclusive and 10 to 17, inclusive, cannot be moved. Part of motion 9 is an exception to this. I will deal with that later.
