We will be making two proposals. I have outlined the proposal in regard to module 1. In regard to module 2, we will be seeking an additional option on the ballot paper, which is that gestational timeframes are not dealt with in primary legislation but are dealt with in secondary legislation in consultation with the medical profession. We will submit these two proposals to the committee this evening.
