Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Bill

That is a better point, because courts are being asked to judge fear as a way of helping to judge safety. I do not want to take on the role of the Minister, but one answer would be that fear is not the only factor. There are both objective and subjective elements to safety, and fear is a more subjective part than the clause as a whole covers. I remember spending 20 years of teaching law telling my students not to use the words ““objective”” and ““subjective”” until they were at least third-years, because they are inherently confusing.
