Proceeding contribution from Robert Smith (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Terrorism Bill.


Terrorism Bill

The use of the word ““or”” in clause 5(1) is important.—[Interruption.] It says:"““A person commits an offence if, with the intention of . . . committing acts or terrorism, or . . . assisting another to commit such acts””." Surely financing someone who plans to commit a terrorist act constitutes giving useful assistance to that person.
