	UK: New Terrorism Law Fundamentally Flawed - Empire? - Global Policy Forum
		The law, which allows for control orders restricting the freedom of terrorism suspects, was rushed through Parliament in response to a December 2004 ruling by Britain’s highest court that the indefinite detention of foreign terrorism suspects breached human rights law.
		Notably absent from the new Act are any measures to facilitate the prosecution of terrorism suspects, ignoring the detailed recommendations made by the Privy Counsellor Review Committee (“Newton Committee”) in December 2003, a year before the Law Lords judgment.
		The use of secret evidence raises the prospect that control orders may be founded in part on material obtained under torture from third countries, since the U.K. government insists that it is entitled to rely on such material provided that it was not involved in the torture.

	UK Terrorism Legislation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 provisions which are not specifically targeted at terrorism should be reconsidered, on their own merits, in the context of the mainstream legislation in which they belong.
		One issue whether the threat to the UK from international terrorism was such as to justify derogation from the Convention was considered and the speeches of their Lordships are, we think, of great significance.
		Until the Human Rights Act 1998, the question of whether the threat to the nation was sufficient to justify suspension of habeas corpus or the introduction of powers of detention could not have been the subject of judicial decision.

		The London occurrences of July 2005 rightly and inevitably catalysed an earlier examination of potential additional legislation than had been envisaged at the time of the enactment of the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005.
		For example, on the 12th September 2005 a press report by Udo Ulfkotte entitled "Security circles: Indications of a third London terror cell" was issued by the German news agency ddp.
		It occurs to me that the use of the words "committing" and "commit", with their direct reference to "acts of terrorism" might arguably limit the intended scope of the new offence.

		The Prevention of Terrorism Act is a modification of Part Four of the Antiterrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001, specific provisions of which concerning detention of foreigners accused of terrorism expired on March 14, 2005.
		The USA Patriot Act and the English 2001 Antiterrorism, Crime and Security Act are still based on the existence of a double judicial system: on the one hand, protection of the law for citizens, even if it is increasingly restricted, and, on the other hand, suspension of the law for foreigners.

		A letter from the police to Fauzi’s lawyer last week said he was being held “with reference to” the Prevention of Terrorism Act (Law 10/90).
		It is thought that Fauzi is being held “with reference” to the Prevention of Terrorism Act because of alleged involvement in distributing “subversive material”.
		However, the charges of treason and terrorism remain pending at the Criminal Court lead to concerns that Fauzi could go back to jail for the same charge even after the presidential pardon.

		Despite the suggestion that the bombings were linked to the broad umbrella network of terrorism associated with al-Qaeda, it was notable that the British government referred to the attacks as crimes and not (as the Bush administration has done in response to other terrorist attacks) as acts of war.
		A striking illustration of the divergent approaches implied by viewing the fight against terrorism within the framework of law enforcement or in a military context was provided by recent reports on the alleged seizure of a terrorist suspect by American intelligence agents in Milan in February 2003.
		However the distinction between law enforcement and war as responses to terrorism may not be as clear-cut and absolute as is sometimes claimed.

	Britain: Government Issues First “Control Orders” Imposing House Arrest RICHARD TAYLOR / WSWS 22mar2005
		Within hours of the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005 (PTA) being signed into law on March 11, Britain’s home secretary, Charles Clarke, personally authorised the first control orders.
		Ten men who had already, under previous legislation, been held in detention for some three years as terror suspects—without any charges being laid against them, without evidence of any crime being produced and without a public trial—found themselves subject to house arrest on the word of Clarke.
		Those accused of condoning or sympathising with terrorism could then be seized by the state.

		His government seeks a new law to criminalize speech deemed to encourage or support acts of terrorism.
		The proposed Prevention of Terrorism Act of 2005 initially received cautious praise when Blair revealed aspects of it in August.
		But actions by authorities under the banner of anti-terrorism, including the shooting death of an unarmed subway passenger and the rough-handed detention of an 82-year-old who shouted the word “nonsense” at Britain’s Foreign Secretary, have raised questions about the extent to which the government and police can be trusted with new, broader powers.

		The Prevention of Terrorism Bill, which also allows the government to ban terror suspects from meeting certain people or traveling and to restrict their access to the Internet or telephone later received the formality of royal assent to become law.
