Proceeding contribution from Peter Bottomley (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

When I was a trustee and member of the board at Christian Aid in the late 1970s, complaints were made that information that we provided about the conditions of people in South Africa in some way supported the violence that was said to be associated with the ANC. I fear that, under the Bill as drafted, my former colleagues and I could have been accused—we might not have been convicted—of offences for which the clause provides. I should like an assurance from the Under-Secretary that that is not the case.
