Perhaps one of the experts can tell us if there have been any negative effects as a result of a three day waiting period. The eighth amendment committee spent a lot of time making it very clear to the people of Ireland what we were putting before them. We put a three day cooling off period before them. Any change to that at this stage would have to be considered very deeply.

A mobile unit was mentioned. That reminds me of a library coming to my local town years ago. That was the image I had in my head.
