Then the next argument is that perhaps it failed to protect victims. This was an argument that the Minister raised in the committee stage. She said, "Well, since this bill has been introduced 10 years ago, violent crime has increased. Therefore, it hasn't worked. It hasn't protected victims of crime.", which was the weakest argument I've ever heard a Minister of Justice come up with. It probably didn't occur to her that there might be one or two other factors involved in the increase in violent crime in the last few years. I could suggest one or two, perhaps the most obvious one being this Government's soft-on-crime approach and the messages that it has sent, the excuses that it's come up with for violent crime, and the fact that it hasn't done anything successful in countering it and keeping the community safe.
