I thank our witnesses for coming before us and for all the work they have done in producing this report in a very time-sensitive fashion. I thank them and their colleagues. I would like to return to the three-day wait period as referred to by my colleague previously. Ms O’Shea has agreed that there is no medical reason for it and that there is no legal reason for it. Her belief was that there would be a fear that women might make a mistake.
