Counter-Terrorism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord West of Spithead (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 17 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bills on Counter-Terrorism Bill.
moved Amendment No. 2: 2: Clause 44, page 32, line 26, leave out subsection (1) and insert— ““( ) This Part applies to— (a) an offence as to which a court has determined under section 32 (sentences for offences with a terrorist connection: England and Wales) that the offence has a terrorist connection, and (b) an offence in relation to which section 33 applies (sentences for offences with terrorist connection: Scotland).”” The noble Lord said: My Lords, I shall speak to Amendments Nos. 2 to 4. Amendments Nos. 2 and 3 improve the drafting in relation to the provision that the notification requirements attach to offences with a terrorist connection, taking account of the differences in the system attaching to such offences for Scotland. Amendment No. 4 is consequential to the amendments that we made on Report to the notification requirements that varied the time periods for which notification requirements would apply. The amendment would ensure that if a person subject to a notification requirement has their sentence varied, the notification period would be altered accordingly. I beg to move. On Question, amendment agreed to.
