Violent Crime Reduction Bill

Clause 35 states:"““A person who exercises a power under this section may use such force as is reasonable in the circumstances””." It is not clear that that does not mean teachers wrestling with defiant pupils suspected of carrying weapons. Do we not need clear guidelines so that legal and physical dangers can be avoided?
