I move amendment No. 35:

In page 103, subsection (2), lines 34 to 36, to delete all words from and including "both," in line 34 down to and including "day" in line 36 and substitute "both".

The purpose of amendments Nos. 35 and 36 is to remove the restriction whereby the court does not have the power to grant a restriction of movement order for more than 12 hours in a single day. The use of such an order has the potential to act as an alternative to incarceration in the case of some individuals.
