Terrorism Act 2000

Section 3: Proscription

14.Schedule 2 lists all organisations proscribed under the PTA and the EPA at the time the Act received Royal Assent. Some organisations were at that point proscribed in Northern Ireland under the EPA but not in Great Britain under the PTA. Under the Act, any organisation deemed to merit proscription will be proscribed throughout the whole of the UK. The Government is considering which organisations involved in international terrorism might be added to the Schedule.

15.The power to proscribe and deproscribe in subsection (3), including deproscription following a successful appeal, will be subject to the affirmative resolution procedure.
