First and foremost, I want to thank Hon. Florence for bringing this amendment. What is interesting and which I highly support is the definition of “sexual offence”. It includes what we never think about. Things like non-verbal which may not be used here distinctly, but it deals with touching of private parts of a person. That must be included. Touching breasts, buttocks and other private parts is part of sexual offences that must be understood as an offence. More than that, I would like to include words such as winking at a person, or staring at a person in a manner that is likely to be an offence."}
