Terrorist Asset-Freezing (Temporary Provisions) Bill

My Lords, once again we have had an interesting debate that shows clearly why we need to do more work on these issues. We are very grateful to the noble Baroness, Lady Hamwee, for raising these issues. They foreshadow the sort of issues that we will have to think about and discuss in due course. The Counter-Terrorism Act does apply to this Bill. The 2009 order is within the definition of the UN orders to which Section 63 of the Counter-Terrorism Act applies. I hope that clarifies that point. I certainly reassure the noble Baroness that all the comments made will be taken into consideration when we come to look at the final, full Bill. It gives us an indication of the sort of issues that are troubling Members of the House, and we will want to address those in due course. I hope the noble Baroness will feel that, having properly raised these issues, she is able to withdraw the amendment.
