Not only that, I fear that despite what the Minister has said about going away and thinking about it, it is clear from the last thing he said that he intends that, in future, there will not be a presumption in favour of protecting the life of the unborn. Am I correct in thinking that current clinical practice is guided by the 2015 legislation? Has that section of the 2015 legislation that is being amended been commenced?
