Terrorism Bill

I hope, therefore, that the noble Lord will also be satisfied that the changes that we make in respect of terrorist explosions being planned in Scotland should apply to all planned explosions. That is a matter for the Scottish Parliament. The noble Lord could make his case to Members of that august body in relation to any other sorts of explosions. Amendment No. 101 also seeks to confer extra-territorial jurisdiction for offences under the Explosive Substances Act 1883. That is not necessary since it is already achieved by Section 62 of the Terrorism Act 2000. In the light of what I have said, I hope that each noble Lord will be satisfied that the amendments they have proposed are not necessary and that the Bill as currently drafted will permit us to meet our international obligations in a way with which they can concur.
