I think of the words in the preamble to the Constitution about cherishing all of the children. In their time, these children clearly were not cherished and neither were their mothers but we have an opportunity, in what we do now, to restore their dignity, to respect them and to cherish their value to us as a State. I appreciate the Minister's words and thoughts on that.
