The other issue that I want to raise relates to the homes of medical practitioners and staff working in medical facilities. Are we satisfied that we have done enough? If we bring forward legislation which clearly prevents anyone from protesting or in any way intimidating anyone attending such a facility, the next available option is to go to the homes of medical practitioners but also staff such as nurses or administrators. Are we satisfied that we have sufficient protection for them if we bring forward this legislation?
