But how do you envisage that that will take place?

Thank you—that was very helpful.

My next question is on something that I know that you have already talked about and which is in the code of practice, but I would like an answer to go on the record. Can you please set out, in broad terms, the specific legislation to which the code will apply?

I apologise if you have covered this and I have missed it, Dr Plastow, but I want to ask about your role. Do you rely on reports coming in to you about people who have or have not broken the code of practice, or do you proactively investigate things?

Are you saying that Police Scotland has not used live facial recognition technology?

You have kind of answered my next question. If you are dealing only with police and criminal justice matters, they will know the rules, so it might be a bit quiet—the chances of your being swamped with stuff may not be that high. However, in a case where something has happened and it is found that the code has been broken, what is the penalty? Is there a penalty?

Would the member acknowledge that women’s organisations that support victims of domestic abuse and sexual violence are very supportive of virtual trials?

Can you clarify what your alternative to fiscal fines is? Are you suggesting that there should be a custodial sentence instead of fiscal fines?

I support Collette Stevenson’s amendments 56 and 57 for the reasons that she has just outlined, which I will not repeat.

I do not think that Jamie Greene’s amendments are necessary, again for the reasons that have been outlined. As I understand it, Mr Greene wants to review the “appropriateness” of a fee, but I do not think that that can be done retrospectively. The fee is very much part of this bill, as is the licensing system. I do not think that we can go back and almost undermine the bill’s purpose and effect. For those reasons, I will not be supporting his amendments.

Will the member take an intervention?
