In my opinion, the new rules in general weren't needed. They're being shunted into place as a knee jerk reaction to the Christchurch terrorist attack. If the legislation and correct firearms licensing procedures had been followed in that instance, the shooter would never have obtained an FL license. I suspect the correct licensing procedures weren't followed partly as a result of resourcing issues with firearms licensing. This problem with a lack of resourcing for firearms licensing has gotten worse in recent years. It would make more sense to direct adequate resourcing to firearms licensing. But this obviously hasn't happened.
