I have, very briefly, and I want to speak again with the indulgence of the Cathaoirleach. Senator Mullen has eloquently and articulately given a synopsis of my previous contribution. I listened with great care to his eloquence and knowledge of the area. He referred to the threat of suicide. The Bill talks not about the threat of suicide but about the risk of suicide. Any misunderstanding between the two terms fundamentally misunderstands the entire nature of section 9.
