David Norris (Independent)

Senator Ryan has identified a weak clause. I invoked the reference in The Tailor and Ansty to taking the nephew out to watch the bull covering the cow. The section refers to "inviting, inducing or coercing the child to participate in or observe any activity of a sexual or indecent nature". This could involve inviting a child of 16 years and 11 months to a film. Many films have explicit sexual material. This section makes such a situation an offence, which is daft.
