I move amendment No. 113:
In page 23, between lines 12 and 13, to insert the following:“(2) The special measures referred to in subsection (1)are:(a) the exclusion of the public, any portion of the public or any particular person or persons from the court during such criminal proceedings pursuant to section 19;
(b) directions under section 20regarding the questioning of the victim in respect of his or her private life;
(c) measures under Part III of the Criminal Evidence Act 1992 enabling the victim to give evidence through a live television link or an intermediary or enabling a screen or other similar device to be used in the giving of evidence.”.
