Since we were so anxious to do exactly what Mr. Justice Quirke had asked us to do, the legislation was very prescriptive. What was not prescribed, of course, was what happened in regard to the card, the health services card. I hope we will rectify the matter as quickly as possible. It would not be appropriate to ask the women themselves to return the cards. I am not certain how that would work, but I am saying the new card, when issued, will be anonymised as much as possible, although I am not certain it will be more discreet. It will have to be identifiable as being different from the other card. We all accept this.
