Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) 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

Notwithstanding the Minister’s explanation and justification, I find myself unpersuaded. Given that he prays in aid the importance of achieving clarity, will he be good enough to tell the House with what precise offence the individual would be charged if it transpired that he was not a terrorist but merely a trespasser? Given that the Minister refers to the consequences that must flow from the act, what would they be in terms of the range of penalties?
