This is a fair point. There would be a tough call over whether it clears the Oakes bar, but I'm not sure how you would have to word it. I think I'm coming around to the view that this would be harder to proscribe as an offense than first thought.

I'm sticking with the tort law legislation thing though. It fits quite nicely into those principles.
