Terrorism Act 2000

Paragraphs 10–11: Appeal

148.These paragraphs provide a new route of appeal to the High Court against refusal, revocation or conditions imposed on a licence which is designed to fulfil our ECHR obligations under Article 6. If the Secretary of State wishes to rely on a certificate under paragraph 11(1) in order to protect any sensitive information on which he may have based his decision, the applicant may appeal against the certificate to the Northern Ireland Tribunal who will scrutinise the basis for it. In either case the merits of the Secretary of State’s decision will be examined by a judicial body.
