According to a strict interpretation of section 20(2)(b) where they speak about, and as Judge Wilson read it, in the course and within the ambit.  It is not just within the course.  It says "and within the scope of his or her duties and within the scope of his or her authority" to have committed it.  That puts them in a very tight corridor.  That is what I was trying to say to Judge Wilson.  I cannot imagine what the person drawing up the Act meant.   But they still qualify in terms of paragraph (a), where it says
"Any member or supporter of a well-known political organisation".
