I would also say that amendment No. 14 is quite prescriptive in its parts 1 and 2, and is actually too prescriptive because it means one has to prove all of this whereas what we are proposing is that the offence has occurred and somebody has been injured by it occurring; having to prove all of this makes it that little bit more difficult for the person who is bringing the charge.
