It seems to me that what's being set up under these subsections is this. If the amendment doesn't go through, it leaves the member in the position of having to actually swear or attest to something that's very subjective, and it seems to me that puts someone at risk of criminal offence if it is determined that the grounds aren't actually reasonable.
That's a very subjective thing. I understand the reason for a screen, but I think that could put quite a chill on someone's willingness to attest that something's reasonable. The reasonable man on the Clapham omnibus is pretty hard to define sometimes.
Is that what is happening here? Could someone be liable for a criminal charge for attesting to something that somebody else didn't think was reasonable, but that person did believe was reasonable?
