> Forwarding excerpt from Home Office press release dated February 28:
>
> I have today laid a draft Order, under section 123(4)(a) of the Terrorism
> Act, recommending to Parliament that the following organisations be added
to
> the list of proscribed organisations in Schedule 2 to the Act:
> - Al-Qa'ida
> - Egyptian Islamic Jihad
> - Al-Gama'at al-Islamiya
> - Armed Islamic Group (Groupe Islamique Armée) (GIA)
> - Salafist Group for Call and Combat (Groupe Salafiste pour la Prédication
> et le Combat) (GSPC)
> - Babbar Khalsa
> - International Sikh Youth Federation
> - Harakat Mujahideen
> - Jaish e Mohammed
> - Lashkar e Tayyaba
> - Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE)
> - Hizballah External Security Organisation
> - Hamas-Izz al-Din al-Qassem Brigades
> - Palestinian Islamic Jihad - Shaqaqi
> - Abu Nidal Organisation
> - Islamic Army of Aden
> - Mujaheddin e Khalq
> - Kurdistan Workers' Party (Partiya Karkeren Kurdistan) (PKK)
> - Revolutionary Peoples' Liberation Party - Front (Devrimci Halk Kurtulus
> Partisi - Cephesi) (DHKP-C)
> - Basque Homeland and Liberty (Euskadi ta Askatasuna) (ETA)
> - 17 November Revolutionary Organisation (N17)
>
> Under section 3(3)(a) of the Act, I may by order add an organisation to
> Schedule 2, where I believe that it is concerned in terrorism, as defined
in
> section 1 of the Act. I am entirely satisfied that the organisations named
> above are "concerned in terrorism" as set out in section 3(5) of the Act,
> and have, after careful consideration, decided to exercise my discretion
to
> proscribe them. The draft Order is subject to the affirmative resolution
> procedure. There will therefore be a debate in both Houses on my
> recommendations. If approved by Parliament, the proscriptions will take
> effect on the day after I sign the Order. To assist consideration by both
> Houses, I have placed in the Libraries, the Vote Office, and the Printed
> Paper Office, copies of a Note setting out a brief summary in respect of
> each organisation named in the draft Order.
>
> The Act provides for an appeal process. After the Order comes into force,
it
> will be open for any of the organisations so proscribed, or any person
> affected by their proscription, to make application to me for
> deproscription. If that application is refused, the Act provides for an
> appeal to a new independent tribunal, the Proscribed Organisations Appeal
> Commission, established by the Terrorism Act.
