Criminal Justice Bill 2004: Committee Stage.

——that relates to civil liability. I do not see that the amendment to the law proposed by Senator Cummins is necessary because if one uses a weapon otherwise than in accordance with the firearms certificate which authorises one to use it, such as by trespassing on someone's land to shoot there, one is already committing an offence. I do not believe we need to have a separate offence of this kind.
