We have to ensure that we have safe communities, and the way that we have safe communities in the face of repeat and violent offenders, those accused of the most serious offences and violent crimes, is that they remain in custody until their trial. That is how we can keep our communities safe. We see far too often that people who are accused of the very serious violent offences of terrorizing and victimizing communities are released, and they continue to commit these same or similar violent offences.
