I welcome amendment No. 27 because of the need to have consistency in sentencing and to have a monitoring system in place to ensure that consistency and that justice is carried out in an even-handed fashion. I am not suggesting that it is not now, but issues occasionally arise which raise eyebrows and these need to be examined. It is good that there will be a system in place to do so. May I also speak to amendment No. 40 in this group?
