The Justice Minister's defending a gang patch ban in people's homes, planned to be rolled out to repeat offenders.

A clause allowing courts to ban gang insignia in the homes of repeat offenders was added last month after submissions were made at the Select Committee stage.

The bill's expected to pass this month.

The law society says it's alarming it was introduced after the consultation process had ended.

Paul Goldsmith told Mike Hosking there are escalating consequences for those convicted three times.

He says we need to give police the tools to deal with a small section of society causing mayhem.
