No problem. That is fantastic. One of the reasons I asked that question relates to children in care. Last week, Ms Mary O'Toole, senior counsel, appeared before the committee.

She clearly said that a lot of the cases that come before the courts relate to children in care. That is the reason I ask the question about the gestational period because sometimes it might not be possible to work within the timeframe given that there are courts and care workers involved. I wonder about the human rights of adolescents and their points of view. I would welcome the perspective of Ms Zampas on that.
