Can the Minister give a definition of "reasonable force"? One sees on television all the time drug enforcement people, particularly in the United Kingdom, using battering rams to whack down the doors of private houses. I assume this practice is not entirely unknown in this jurisdiction. How much physical force is regarded as appropriate or legal?
I would have thought the word "destroys" would also cover "deletes," but I presume this is a nod in the direction of the computerised world in which, so regrettably, we are forced to live.
