There is already indeed a system in place for the seizure of offence-related property. The amendment allows for the seizure of a computer used to commit an offence, even a summary conviction offence. As you know, for the time being, provisions on offence-related property apply when offences are dealt with by way of indictment, so for the more serious offences, but we consider that when a computer is used to commit an offence, whether it is serious or less so, the Court should have the authority to seize this computer.
