Description

The Government's set to lay out what it plans to do about the gun laws. 

Associate Justice Minister Nicole McKee is expected to announce her rewriting of the Arms Act this morning. 

Council of Licensed Firearms Owners Spokesperson Hugh Devereux-Mack says they want clearer definitions around when a firearm could be taken away for non-criminal reasons. 

He told Ryan Bridge the current Act says Police need to consider any relevant matters deemed appropriate, which he believes is a vague catch-all.
