Proceeding contribution from Lord Elton (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 7 December 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Terrorism Bill.


Terrorism Bill

That was very lucid, but did not quite answer the question I asked. It was not, ““What is the relationship with terrorism?””, but, ““What is the relationship with Scotland?””. It is only ““in relation to Scotland”” that this exemption bites. An explosion, not in a bank, but in a barracks, which would be caught by terrorism, is clearly related to Scotland, but if, in Scotland, I am planning something to happen abroad, is that an offence in Scotland, or is it an offence abroad? Does it come within this provision, or does it not?
