| Abstract | The government's system for drafting new laws is being called into question after an incest case was stopped because of a series of legal blunders and omissions in new legislation. Incest had been mistakenly omitted from recently passed legislation designed to protect vulnerable witnesses in sexual offence cases by allowing them to testify outside the courtroom and away from the alleged perpetrator. |
