Report on the operation in 2005 of the Terrorism Act 2000-by Lord Carlile of Berriew Q.C.

This is my fourth report on the working of the Act as a whole. I am the first Independent Reviewer of the TA2000 in its full range of applicability.

The Terrorism Act 2000 has itself been the subject of significant amendment

  • sections 24-31 were repealed by the Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act and form no part of this review
  • new sections have been inserted by the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005 and the Terrorism Act 2006

My responsibilities in relation to Terrorism Act 2000 in 2005 and throughout the past three years have confirmed the shift of emphasis (without any dilution of vigilance in a sometimes fragile political situation) towards international terrorism as, hopefully, the process of normalisation in Northern Ireland has become more evident in the evolution of the Good Friday Agreement.
