I don't have a lot of time. I will come back to that.
In the study I read, I noted that in nearly all the Commonwealth countries, except Canada, they used what is called in English a "saving clause" when the judge considered the minimum sentence unjust. That provision allows the judge not to apply the sentence, but the judge must explain, orally or in writing, so it is included in the record, the reasons why they are not applying the minimum sentence in this particular case.
If we had to apply minimum sentences, do you think we should proceed as the other Commonwealth countries do?
