The Justice Committee heard from numerous submitters on the bill, including victims of insane offenders, their families, and their advocates. The submitters, who were overwhelmingly in favour of the bill, recounted to the committee some very strong examples and also looked at how they felt when the verdict of not guilty due to insanity was provided in the courtroom setting. When we supported the bill at the first reading, we expressed some reservations about the specific drafting of the bill that we were keen to see examined by the Justice Committee. This is a substantial bill as a member's bill, and significant changes were made.
