Time is running away. I again ask the Taoiseach the following question. How long will he leave women, who want to be able to control their own bodies and have full bodily autonomy over their lives, waiting in this country? What will be the consequences for them travelling, perhaps, to the Olympics Games or on holidays to areas where they might contract a virus, which would be unusual but which could lead to foetal abnormalities and crises pregnancies? What is his message to citizens who are women and who want to travel and who may end up with crises pregnancies as a result of that? Is he going to say to them to travel again to another country to have a termination because we do not recognise their rights here in this country?
