We need to make sure that those who are victimizing women are not out in the open where they can continue to commit crimes. I support the amendment because at least there is some action taken. When we have access to those reports, we can see, and NGOs can see, what those reports are. But if we're serious about protecting women, we need to make sure that people who commit serious crimes are in jail. We should make sure that they do the time they have been given and that they aren't given double or triple for time served. I think that's what we need to be looking at.
