In reply to Senator Henry's point on the investigation of child abduction cases and Senator Norris's query about restrictions on the type of offences that can be dealt with, my Department has considered these matters and the view is that the scope of the Bill should not be restricted in any way. Sensible decisions will have to be taken as to whether a joint investigation team should be set up. A decision to set up such a team, involving police forces, customs services and revenue commissioners from different countries, cannot be taken lightly and will not be taken for petty offences. However, international crime is not limited in its scope, neither should the Bill.
