-----the HSE now funds 16 crisis pregnancy agencies and has put in place a framework to protect women and it is a condition of that funding that the framework is adhered to. The Deputy refers to ten years since the Hot Press revelation. I have been in office for ten months and the consultation is done. I will bring regulation to the House within months. We are going to move on this. The Deputy knows the process very well in respect of regulations, the Attorney General's advice and the legislative process. We will get this done and after decades or more of women waiting, they will not wait much longer.
