:07:04. > :07:10.at risk or if there is permanent risk to her mental health. Here in
:07:11. > :07:18.Belfast, while we don't have a surgical terminations, have
:07:19. > :07:21.terminations by medicine, or tablets which are given to women who are up
:07:22. > :07:27.to nine weeks pregnant and that would trigger a termination. As of
:07:28. > :07:30.today, it will not be providing that service of oral medication to women
:07:31. > :07:35.under 18 or two women who are seen to be vulnerable. Can we put a
:07:36. > :07:41.figure on this, the number of local women that may be affected by this?
:07:42. > :07:45.We understand 1,000 women every year from Northern Ireland travel to
:07:46. > :07:50.England to avail of the service of a clinic. We can imagine that someone
:07:51. > :07:54.in this week are bound to be affected. Larry Stopes say they have
:07:55. > :07:58.set up a confidential helpline and you can avail of that number on

:08:38. > :08:44.to in the pst few days, they are extremely
:08:45. > :08:47.angry that the effort they put in have been taken away in

:09:02. > :09:07.in Rio, it's time to look back at the success
:09:08. > :09:10.of our local competitors. Others had higher finishes
:09:11. > :09:15.that the London Games. But medal expectations, especially
:09:16. > :09:26.in the boxing, weren't realised. Pre-games, there was the fear of
:09:27. > :09:30.crime, traffic chaos, Zika and that the first Olympics in
:09:31. > :09:35.South America would not work. It worked perfect and
:09:36. > :09:39.the sport was outstanding. There were no Northern Irish
:09:40. > :09:41.medallists to cheer. For Alan Campbell, there was
:09:42. > :09:47.a record for the Olympic appearance for the rower that no Northern Irish
:09:48. > :09:53.athlete had achieved before. It is really tough but I have to say
:09:54. > :10:01.that I have been so, lucky I put it all out there
:10:02. > :10:05.and did what I had to do Team Ireland finished
:10:06. > :10:13.with just two medals. Gary and Paul O'Donovan,
