Dr. Gilda Sedgh:

I think the Deputy is asking me to take a position on whether a terminated pregnancy is the end of a life and that is not something on which the institute has taken a position. The position of the institute is that there are a lot of perspectives on when life begins and that women's reproductive health is best ensured when women are able to make decisions regarding their reproductive lives and reproductive health in consultation with their partners, with their faith leaders and with their health care providers. That is the position of the institute and I think that is what the Deputy is asking me.
