I welcome these amendments. If the Minister recalls, they were something she promised in regard to the passage of the harassment Bill. In terms of a procedure, if there was an inclination for a victim to waiver anonymity, how would that be? Would they apply to the court to do that? Would the court make the decision on that? In terms of access to the court, is there any fast track or how would that apply to somebody who is under enormous pressure in an immediate sense? How would they get access to ensure they could get such a restraining order to be given by the court as quickly as possible?
