Schedule 1
Counter-Terrorism Bill
10:45 am
Tony McNulty (Minister of State (Security, Counter-terrorism, Crime and Policing), Home Office; Harrow East, Labour)
I beg to move amendment No. 75, in schedule 1, page 70, line 3, after ‘(5)’ insert ‘to (7)’.
The purpose of the amendment is to correct an oversight in a series of the consequential amendments outlined in schedule 1. It will ensure that the definition of “senior judge” in the stated paragraph is omitted when reading schedule 8 of the Terrorism Act 2000 if the maximum limit reverts to 14 days. It is a minor technical amendment, which makes no change to the effect of the existing policy, and I commend it to the Committee.
