If you look at the previous answer I gave to you—and I will just read it out to you as well—it was that the bill covers all offences. Warrants can only be sought in relation to a relevant offence, which is a federal offence, or a state offence that has a federal aspect, punishable by a maximum term of imprisonment of three years or more.
