Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 July 2008. It occurred during Legislative debate on Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism.


Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism

I am not clear about my right hon. Friend's comments about the case of the People's Mujahedeen Organisation of Iran. Obviously, de-proscription is almost as important as proscription when people feel that they are subject to an unfair restriction. Is my right hon. Friend saying that, to get an organisation de-proscribed, Members of this House and the House of Lords must approach the Home Secretary? I did not envisage that when I read the vague rules that currently exist on de-proscription.
