This book was released on 2008-02-25 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 30th January 2008 the Home Secretary laid before both Houses of Parliament a draft Order to renew the control order legislation, the third annual extension of the control order regime. The Government takes the view that no amendments to the legal framework are necessary. The Committee disagrees and considers it imperative for the Government to amend counter-terrorism laws where experience has shown them to lead to breaches of human rights. Amongst their recommendations are: ensurance of timely availability of Lord Carlile's annual report on the control orders; the need to strengthen the intrusive powers contained in the control orders; modification of the Prevention of Terrorism Act to impose a maximum daily limit 12 hours on the curfew which can be imposed; review of the fairness of the special advocate procedure and a need to take into account the Committee's own earlier recommendations concerning this; maintaining the preferred policy of priority of prosecution; and greater transparency of decisions that prosecution is not possible.

This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Joint Committee on Human Rights calls for a fundamental, independent review of the necessity for and proportionality of all counter-terrorism measures adopted since September 11 2001. It questions the way that the policy imperatives of national security and public safety have been used to justify squeezing out human rights considerations. Since September 11 2001, the Government has continuously claimed that there is a "public emergency threatening the life of the nation". The Committee questions whether the country has really been in this state for over eight years. A permanent state of emergency skews public debate about the justification for rights-limiting counter-terrorism measures. It is unacceptable that the Director General of the Security Service refuses to appear before it to give public evidence - despite giving public lectures and media interviews. The Committee finds the Government's narrow definition of complicity in torture significant and worrying and calls for an urgent independent inquiry into the allegations of complicity in torture. The Government should drop the draft bill still being held in reserve to allow pre-charge detention to be extended to 42 days. And more work should be done on measures - such as bail and the use of intercept evidence - that could reduce the use of pre-charge detention. The Intelligence and Security Committee should become a proper Parliamentary committee with an independent secretariat and legal advice and appointing an independent reviewer of counter-terror legislation who reports directly to Parliament not the Government.

This book was released on 2006-02-20 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee's first report in its ongoing inquiry into counter-terrorism policy and human rights issues (HLP 75-I /HCP 561-I, session 2005-06; ISBN 0104007672) focused on the London terrorist attacks in July 2005 and the Government's counter-terrorism measures taken in response. This publication, the Committee's second report in its inquiry, focuses on the human rights implications of the control orders regime established under the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005, in relation to issues of deprivation of liberty, right to a fair trial, inhuman and degrading treatment, impact on human rights of family members, and discrimination. The control orders regime will be extended for a further year from March 2006 if a draft Order is approved by both Houses of Parliament. The Committee finds that the case for consolidating counter-terrorism legislation is potentially strong. However it is noted with regret that the Government has decided to seek the renewal of the control orders regime through a draft Order rather than a Bill, therefore significantly reducing the scope for parliamentary scrutiny and debate.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this Report is to comment on the adequacy of the additional safeguards which the Government has indicated it intends to bring forward to meet the human rights concerns about its proposal to extend the maximum period of pre-charge detention to 42 days. The report explains the Committee's conclusion that the additional safeguards are inadequate to protect individuals against the risk of arbitrary detention. The Committee recommends that the Government provide Parliament with the evidence on which it relies when it says that the threat from terrorism is growing. It also calls for information about the use made of the extended power to detain without charge for up to 28 days since it was last renewed in July 2007. No amount of additional parliamentary or judicial safeguards can render the proposal for a reserve power of 42 days' pre-charge detention compatible with the right of a terrorism suspect to be informed "promptly" of the charge against him under Article 5(2) ECHR. The Government has not included in the Counter-Terrorism Bill a provision to improve the existing arrangements for parliamentary review of the operation of extended pre-charge detention, and the report puts forward amendments to the Bill to improve such arrangements. In the Committee's view the recent examples of questionable information sharing by the intelligence services, which risk making the UK complicit in torture or other inhuman or degrading treatment, show that there is a need for substantive legal safeguards to guarantee against the arbitrary and disproportionate use of the power to disclose and use such information. The Committee proposes amendments to strengthen safeguards.

The Committee's 24th report was the third in a series of reports which are part of an ongoing inquiry into counter-terrorism policy and human rights with specific focus on the effective criminal prosecution of terrorist suspects in ways compatible with the UKs human rights obligations.

Book excerpt: This is the third in a series of reports by the Committee in its ongoing inquiry into counter-terrorism policy and human rights issues. Previous reports examined the impact of the July 2005 terrorist attacks in London and counter-terrorism measures taken, including the Terrorism Bill (HLP 75-I/HCP 561-I, session 2005-06; ISBN 0104007672) and the operation of the control orders regime (HLP 122/HCP 915, session 2005-06; ISBN 0104008199). This third report considers broader issues involved in making the Governments counter-terrorism strategy more compatible with human rights, focusing on possible adaptations of the criminal justice system to prosecute terrorist suspects without breaching human rights obligations; and possible alternatives to lengthy pre-charge detention. The report also examines whether there are any useful lessons to be learned from the investigating magistrates system in France and Spain or the use of investigative hearings in Canada. Findings include: i) the ban on the use of intercept evidence in court should be removed; ii) in order to increase the level of public confidence in the work of the intelligence gathering services, there should be protocols established to oversee the inter-agency arrangements for sharing intelligence which are subject to independent scrutiny; iii) there should be an enforceable right to compensation for those held in pre-charge detention but not charged, and provision made for counselling support to be given to those detained beyond 14 days; and iv) if should not be necessary to further extend the maximum period of pre-charge detention beyond 28 days. The Committee also raises concerns that the Head of the Security Service failed to appear before the Committee in relation to this inquiry, and highlights the urgent need for a new monitoring body to ensure independent oversight of the security and intelligence agencies and the Governments claims based on intelligence information.
