Sinopse

There’s concerns a crackdown on gangs could go too far.  Proposed Firearm Prohibition Order laws would expand bans on holding a firearms licence to people committing lower-level offences, and allow warrantless police searches of suspects.  The Justice Select Committee is asking for it to be scaled back, concerned it gives police too much power.   Labour's Justice Spokesperson Ginny Andersen told Ryan Bridge the proposal is still too broad.  She says it's designed to look tough, but it's not clear what problem it's actually fixing.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
