Background

We want stronger punishment for the vandalism and theft of vans. We'd also like to introduce victim compensation for van theft. We feel that it can affect hundreds of thousands of livelihoods and that vans are the backbone of small to medium businesses.

Additional details

We believe that this is a situation that is so common which is damaging to workers morale and mental health. We feel this issue is left with the victim to pick up the pieces, through business expense and increased insurance premiums.
