		Proscription was set as the unchangeable first item, regardless of many delegates' protests that it was meaningless to discuss it in isolation.
		It was apparent that virtual total proscription would be the only form accepted by those who participated in the teleconference; after a full day's argument, their only concession was a strict six-month sunset clause -- operating from August 17, not from whenever a party is actually formed.

		The traditional friends of the Tamil Tigers, the tiny Marumalarchy Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK) headed by the maverick politician, Vaiko Gopalasamy said though they liked the idea of lifting the proscription of the Tamil Tigers they have to abide by the majority decision of the coalition of parties of which the MDMK is a member.

		Second, it argued, 'proscription will be the starting point for the creation of a number of fundraising and other offences, especially fundraising for terrorism overseas'.
		However, it was acknowledged that proscription could make intelligence gathering and law enforcement tasks more difficult, at least in part because it tends to put distance between law enforcement agencies and informants.
		To the extent that the proscription provisions have a real purpose, I suspect it has more to do with enabling the government to seize assets, freeze bank accounts, and prevent donations to organisations which promote or practise terrorism (rather than to allow members of such organisations to be arrested and charged with membership).

		On some occasions, the government would subsequently publish a proscription decree purporting that the closure was done pursuant to the provisions of the decree.
		Forced closure of a press facility or the proscription of a newspaper or magazine undoubtedly constitutes a prior restraint on the exercise of the right to free speech as well as post publication censorship, both of which are generally prohibited by international human rights instruments.
		Since every Proscription Decree usually suspends the guarantees provided by the constitution and ousts the jurisdiction of the courts to inquire into their validity or the validity of any action undertaken in pursuance of their provisions, the courts have invariably declined jurisdiction over any suit challenging the proscription of any publication.

		'Proscription' is not like a tap that can be turned 'on' and 'off' according to one's whims and fancies.
		Thus, an expressed willingness [whether genuine or not] to enter into meaningful 'Talks' or even genuinely entering into such 'Talks' is not, and cannot be, a reason for de-proscription or the conferment of legitimacy upon the LTTE, so long as the reasons for its proscription remain.
		The LTTE's objective to rob the country of a part of her sovereign territory and establish a separate state therein remains unchanged and constitutes the basis and/or essential reason for the existence of that criminal organization.
