I will take up the point made by Senator Hayden. I, along with others from all sides of the House, regret that the mobility allowance is being terminated. I am sure we all have constituents who will be deprived as a result. Many of these people are in the autumn years of their life and some live alone. The allowance is a prerequisite for any reasonable quality of life for these people.

I have constantly stated in the House that instead of promises not to reduce pay or social welfare rates, I fully accept that corrections must be made to the fiscal position.

It would be far better to do that evenly so that small amounts are imposed on people rather than depriving a person seeking mobility allowance of the entire payment.

I ask the House to come together and condemn the appalling attack last week on the office of the pro-life group, Youth Defence. Human excrement was spread on the doors, windows, shutters and locks of the building. Most profanely of all, images of the poor Indian lady, Ms Savita Halappanavar, who died in Galway, were pinned with excrement to the doors. The mindless people within the pro-abortion advocacy groups who would do that need to be condemned soundly by all sides of the House. I know some Members of the House are pro-abortion, or pro-choice, but we should condemn all of that.

May I raise a point of order?

Senator Norris, on a point of order.

Senator Norris is ignorantly interrupting, as he normally does.

I am not. Can we please have honest language?

What is your point of order, Senator?

No one in this House is pro-abortion. I strongly object to this unpleasant and vicious characterisation of people who have a conscience and do not want to have a woman with an ectopic pregnancy or who has a child without a head or a brain or a spinal column being forced---

Senator Norris, that is not a point of order.

That is not pro-abortion. That is pro-decency.

Hear, hear. Well said, Senator Norris.

Senator Norris, please resume your seat and respect the Chair. Senator Walsh, have you a question for the Leader?

I am asking the Leader, in view of this intemperate situation, to ask the Minister for Health to come to the House to tell us when the findings of the report into the death of that lady will be announced to the House. I hope choreography is not at play here with regard to publishing the report at the same time as the heads of the Bill, which I suspect is what the Minister is about.

Senator, you are out of time.

When the vote is made on this issue in the next few months, we will find out who is pro-abortion and who is not. That will be the acid test.
