That is really helpful.

There are concerns about warnings being given and how they might be carried forward. The witnesses mentioned the possibility of a fresh warning in respect of each safe access zone possibly being more effective from a policing perspective, if I have interpreted correctly what was said. Is there an example of any other place in law where there is such a provision or would this be a unique approach, whereby warnings are applicable just to one location and would not carry over if a person engages in the same activity elsewhere? My understanding of the law is that if one is caught for doing something in one place, the warning or whatever it is carries across the country. A person cannot say, for example, that he or she was caught for something in Cork but there is a fresh slate if he or she does the same thing in Dublin.
