The last point I was going to make earlier in my remarks and didn't have a chance to because I was waxing eloquent about other things is that I believe this Parliament—not this government, this Parliament—needs to re-commit to a human rights model as part of our agenda for women's health generally and reproductive health in particular. I think that's an essential component of moving forward, that we reassure our international partners that we haven't turned our ship around--our equality ship--our commitment to women's equality and to maternal health and moved it in another direction. Only Parliament can do that in terms of reassuring others.
