Although we agree in principle with the concept, it does not achieve the intent as outlined in the member's general policy statement, which is in the bill available on the Table. The member in charge has argued quite articulately that it is difficult to make out the offence of robbery in the case of a motor vehicle, because the definition of robbery requires an intent to permanently deprive the victim of their possessions. But to address this issue, the bill proposes inserting three words to the Crimes Act, in the definition of robbery, which are those words "or unlawful taking", and this is really a poor way of achieving the intent of the bill.
