Ministers need to take into account the level of risk and the costs, both financial and in terms of the quality of life and the residential amenity of many ordinary citizens who will potentially have cause to come across some of these individuals in the course of everyday life. It is absolutely right that Parliament has a right and duty to be made aware of the real-world practical impact of this unprecedented liberalisation of the criminal justice system that we envisage when the Bill reaches Royal Assent.
