Proceeding contribution from David Heath (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

I also welcome these amendments—they are obviously a sensible adjustment to the original text—but I want to enter an appropriate reservation. The Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 was enacted not many months ago, and it is slightly disappointing to be revisiting provisions that we extensively debated so recently during the passage of that Act. I wish that we could get legislation right and encompass the correct areas in the first instance, rather than having to return to it constantly, perhaps because it was introduced in haste and with insufficient care. Other than making that point, I support these amendments.
