On March 13 1996, Hamilton, 43, burst into Dunblane primary school and killed or injured all but one of a class of 29 five- and six-year-olds. In all, 16 children and their teacher were murdered by Hamilton who shot himself dead at the school.

Could have got out of bed, left his house in Stirling, walked two.

Could have butchered 600 or 700 children. He did not. He got into his.

Although offences involving firearms are still relatively rare in this country, these offences are potentially more serious than other sorts of offence. In 1997, firearms were used in just 0.3 per cent of offences in both England and Wales. However, some offences are more likely to involve the use of firearms. In England and Wales, 8.0 per cent of homicides and 4.8 per cent of robberies involved firearms in 1997; this compares with 6.3 per cent and 3.1 per cent respectively in Scotland. The number of firearms covered by certificates in England and Wales declined dramatically between the end of 1996 and the end of 1997, from 418 thousand to 305 thousand.
