Text

Again, I thank the Member for giving way. I hope that he knows that I am trying to be helpful here. The term "enclosed space" is a generic but inclusive term. Does the Member understand that it could include all enclosed spaces? It could be a barn, a cave, a hole in the ground or a shed. If one tried to list every possible enclosed space, one may well leave some out and create loopholes. That is probably the exact term that one is looking for, because it is a catch-all option. I hope that the Member can take that on board.
