Dr. Anne Doherty:

One of the studies was in Switzerland and showed quite a quite a significant decrease in suicides overall. The authors, who are Swiss, felt that this was associated with the introduction of far greater limitations around firearms in that period of time and a decrease in access to firearms. Unfortunately, all of these things are really complicated. It is really hard to tease out what relates to the law and what does not. I suppose we can look at the overall trends.
