Whether you believe access to abortion is an inviolable right or not, this is a deeply sobering reality for us to consider, and it is vital context for our debate on this group of amendments. This is an issue not just of reproductive rights and bodily autonomy but of human rights, and I was disappointed that the noble Baroness, Lady Hazarika, sought to strike a slightly discordant tone about circumscribing who could comment on these issues and who was more qualified than someone else. I think that was regrettable—
