I move amendment No. 7:

In page 23, to delete line 27 and substitute the following: “(i) independently, impartially and in accordance with law,”.

Section 4 sets out the policing principles. Our amendment is very basic and simple but is important and needs to be said nonetheless. The principle is that policing services are to be provided independently, impartially and in accordance with the law. We ask that the Minister would consider including this. It is an important message to send in the context of the legislation.
