As I said, it would be interesting to have the story straight then. The issue is really to make sure that those restrained assets are available as revenue for the government so they are not dissipated? Is that the case, or is it to actually prevent criminals from benefiting from their restrained assets to have at their disposal and to be able to use to live the high life? I am not clear on what the rationale for the legislation is.
