Is there? Right. My follow-up question was about counselling and how there should be counselling, while also being aware that people perhaps cannot go to a counsellor in their town. I tend to think of things in Dublin because I am from Dublin and have always lived there but there are challenges when you are out in a rural community, that I know have already had to be overcome in the context of mother and baby homes. A really good suggestion was also put in on having a statutory framework for the provision of information. Would Ms Gibney like to elaborate on that? It is a brilliant suggestion.
