Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Stamford (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL].
Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL]
We all know what ““territorial”” means. It means persons who are in this country or visiting this country, or corporate persons such as banks that are resident in this country but have assets abroad. That is territorial jurisdiction. What we want to know is whether Clause 1 has extra-territorial jurisdiction attached to it. In other words, is the power capable of being exercised in relation to persons and assets that are not connected with the United Kingdom?
