I support the amendment we have tabled. The substitute wording more reflects the outcome of the vote on 25 May. I ask the Minister to consider it and to go back to the drafters and seek further clarity. The amendment reflects what the majority of the people wanted and this should be taken on board. It is with regard to access to healthcare by women seeking termination of pregnancy. That is exactly what the people said they wanted.
