If there are deficiencies there, we need to look at our court system. If our courts are just issuing orders with no description of how the order is to be carried out, we are allowing receivers or private security firms to act with impunity with the full weight of a High Court order behind them. They can say they can do what they like because they have a High Court order. Perhaps we need our judicial system to be more prescriptive about how the orders are carried out. The situation of people carrying on in the middle of the night, terrorising the whole community - people who have no part in the issue - is not acceptable and cannot continue.
