Hon CHRIS HIPKINS: Firearms prohibition orders will help to further reduce firearms violence in our communities by prohibiting high-risk offenders from accessing, being around, or using firearms or ammunition. The bill gives the court the power to impose an order lasting 10 years, and it makes it a further criminal offence to breach the conditions of the order. I am concerned about the potential for further gun violence in our communities, and this bill targets those people with a history of serious violent offending and gun crimes, barring them from accessing the most dangerous of weapons.
