I move amendment No. 77:

In page 10, between lines 33 and 34, to insert the following:“(5) The medical practitioners referred to in subsection 1(b) shall, in making their decision as to whether or not to make a section 9 certification in respect of the woman, have regard to contemporary medical evidence pertaining to the appropriateness of the medical procedure for the purpose of averting the risk of loss of the woman's life by way of suicide.”.
