My understanding is that the amendment would actually remove seven conditions that police would be able to impose on an accused person under proposed subsection 501(3), and therefore, by not having those conditions available on which to release somebody, it would increase the likelihood, for example, that somebody may not be able to meet the threshold of appearing for their trial or in court, and lead to more bail hearings and more grounds to hold the person. That runs counter to, I think, with great respect, even the suggestion you're making that the idea here is to make it less onerous and for fewer people to be held.
