Amendment No. 46 relates to the new section to replace section 3.

Briefly, I am proposing that the harassment offence contained in section 3 of the Bill, as initiated, should be deleted as a number of issues have been identified with the approach taken on the new offence which I have briefly touched on in the conversations I have had. This is essentially to replace the section but it deals with many of the same issues.
