Thank you so much for the question.
In terms of whether we should have more client-centric and victim-centric—I use the language of survivors—and survivor-centric language in the bills and whether there should there be more law reforms around that, absolutely, but my point in response to you is that none of the law reforms should be without an evidence-based approach. There should be funding of appropriate research around law reform. There should be an impact assessment of law reform and the bills. There should be implementation of external independent evaluation of [Technical difficulty—Editor] the new changes, and there should be funding for doing all of this work.
Unfortunately, the reason you're hearing a lot of us having a visceral reaction to this bill is that it might actually deepen the problem rather than solve it. From our experience on the ground, there are lots of survivors who have found that the laws that were meant to protect them have been weaponized against them.
I hope that helps.
