00:00I'd like to see more done to prevent crime. I'd like to see more initiatives
00:06for the young people to keep them off the streets, you know, going back
00:12decades where there were places for children to go rather than roaming the
00:16streets and committing crime. Yeah, I'd like to see more initiatives to prevent
00:20crime and to prevent young people going into gangs and I'd like to see more of
00:26that. Yes, definitely. Well, it's difficult, isn't it? I mean, there's been such deep
00:31cuts to all our services in the last 10 years and hopefully things will get
00:36better and there'll be more money put into resources for fighting crime and so
00:41on. But I think it's also really interesting that obviously the prisons
00:44are full and hopefully we'll be having some different policies to find
00:50different ways of not just punishing criminals but rehabilitating them as
00:56well. So I think it's going to be a very interesting time over the next few years, actually.
