00:00May I also welcome to the gallery Cheryl Corbell, the mother of Olivia.
00:06I'm always humbled by those with the courage to respond to appalling heartbreak by campaigning for change.
00:15And I know the whole House will pay tribute to her extraordinary courage and extraordinary resolve.
00:30The last conversation we had, I think I said to you, we're going to do it and you felt we should strengthen the provisions, I think particularly the privileges in prison as well as the other measures, to see the perpetrator sentenced and to put their victim impact statement or whatever it may be to him or her.
00:58And that's why I honestly, I feel humbled by this because you, you, you have, you have produced a lot.
01:05That's what it meant to us the fact that no more the family had to go through what we did.
