I know Professor Higgins understands the hurt that has been caused to the women of Ireland over the years, but can he also understand why they are deeply cynical about this arrangement and why the opinion poll at the weekend showed that nearly two thirds of people are cynical and have questions about it? Does he understand that we are here to voice their concerns? We all are here to achieve the one objective, which is a state-of-the-art national maternity hospital, which should have happened decades ago. I want to give Professor Higgins the opportunity to confirm that he understands why people are cynical.
