I, too, thank our guests. I have two questions. To follow on from the remarks of Senator Seery Kearney in respect of information given to the child, how does early discussion about a child's identity impact his or her understanding and how he or she feels about the conception method?

Public services are limited and have long waiting lists. What solutions or systems do our guests envisage to enable children to quickly and easily access counselling when it is needed? That question keeps coming up with me recently.
