I also welcome the Law Reform Commission's consultation paper on legitimate defence and the six issues with which it deals, namely, legitimate defence as a justification and the need for a clear statement of the law; the essential components of legitimate defence; the threshold requirement; the imminence and emerging new cases; lethal force and law enforcement officers; and legitimate defence and the home. I draw attention to No. 8 on the Order Paper in the names of three Senators.
