This is a section on the purchase of sexual services and it is being inserted in this context. CAB and criminal activity is already defined. For instance, kidnapping people, trafficking people and holding people for any purposes against their will are already heinous crimes in legislation and CAB and those organisations can address them. It is important to make that point. I happen to share a view that confusing people consenting to purchase sex with some of those issues can divert resources from tackling some of the major offenders in that regard as well, but we will see what comes back.
