I take your point, Mr. Koster, that you feel that the clarification isn't required in that the statute as worded requires the intent that's specified in the first few lines.
The problem that I have is that while it may be the minister's intent and it may be your interpretation, when this is out there, it's for defence lawyers and judges to interpret. The goal of the amendment is simply to make that crystal clear and beyond dispute. It's offered for that purpose.
I do appreciate your interpretation.
