That's not the intention when the taser was brought in.
Your statement in your policy that says “it's not intended as a restraint device” is not the same as “it's not to be used as a restraint device”. I think there's a distinction there.
The second point I want to make is in relation to our recommendation 2, this committee's recommendation, that the policy be revised to include clear and strict usage guidelines that would include clear restrictions on multiple discharge. Your policy does not. It may warn of the concerns, but it does not provide clear restrictions on multiple discharges.
Are you prepared to agree that there ought to be restrictions on multiple discharges similar to those proposed by biomedical engineer Pierre Savard, of the École Polytechnique, in that exposure to one or two shocks and not more than 20 seconds in total would be an appropriate restriction on the use of tasers, not just stressing that there are problems if you use them for repeated cycling or multiple uses?
