Thank you, Madam Chairperson. The question that I'd have in terms of when a woman becomes pregnant if she's from one of the regions, what kind of help does she get in determining her options? Is it the social worker, is it the doctor, is it her pastor? Who helps this young woman out in terms of what she's going to do with her pregnancy? If they get pregnant and they're not getting the support or advice that maybe perhaps they should look at keeping the pregnancy and seeing it through, or is it just the fact that the doctor or whoever they are consulting with is telling them to have an abortion and it's okay, just go and have an abortion? What's happening out there? Can the Minister give me a sense of what's happening out there that our abortion rates are as high as they are? Thank you.
