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 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 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 2006-08-01 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Book Synopsis Counter-Terrorism and Human Rights in the Case Law of the European Court of Human Rights by : Ana Salinas de Frias
Download or read book Counter-Terrorism and Human Rights in the Case Law of the European Court of Human Rights written by Ana Salinas de Frias and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terrorism has become one of the major threats facing both states and the international community, in particular after the terrorist attacks in the United States, Madrid and London, which revealed a whole new scale and dimension of the phenomenon. An effective response is absolutely necessary; this response, however, cannot undermine democracy, human rights, the rule of law or the supreme values inherent to these principles.There is no universally agreed definition of "terrorism", nor is there an international Jurisdiction before which the perpetrators of terrorist crimes can be brought to account. The European Court of Human Rights is the first international Jurisdiction to deal with such a phenomenon. For many decades and through more than four hundred cases, it has elaborated a clear, integrated and articulated body of case law on responses to terrorism from a human rights and rule of law perspective. Thus, this is a handbook on counter-terrorism with a special focus on due respect for human rights and rule of law.This book compiles the doctrine laid down by the European Court of Human Rights in this field with a view to facilitating the task of adjudicators, legal officers, lawyers, international IGOs, NGOs, policy makers, researchers, victims and all those committed to fighting this scourge. The book presents a careful analysis of this body of case law and the general principles applicable to the fight against terrorism resulting from each particular case. It also includes a compendium of the main cases dealt with by the Strasbourg Court in this field and will prove to be a most useful guiding tool in the sensitive area of counter-terrorism and human rights.
Book Synopsis Free Speech after 9/11 by : Katharine Gelber
Download or read book Free Speech after 9/11 written by Katharine Gelber and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there has been a lot written about how counter-terrorism laws impact on human rights and civil liberties, most of this work has focussed on the most obvious or egregious kinds of human rights abrogation, such as extended detention, torture, and extraordinary rendition. Far less has been written about the complex ways in which Western governments have placed new and far-reaching limitations on freedom of speech in this context since 9/11. This book compares three liberal democracies - the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, in particular showing the commonalities and similarities in what has occurred in each country, and the changes in the appropriate parameters of freedom of speech in the counter-terrorism context since 9/11, achieved both in policy change and the justification for that change. In all three countries much speech has been criminalized in ways that were considered anachronistic, or inappropriate, in comparable policy areas prior to 9/11. This is particularly interesting because other works have suggested that the United States' unique protection of freedom of speech in the First Amendment has prevented speech being limited in that country in ways that have been pursued in others. This book shows that this kind of argument misses the detail of the policy change that has occurred, and privileges a textual reading over a more comprehensive policy-based understanding of the changes that have occurred. The author argues that we are now living a new-normal for freedom of speech, within which restrictions on speech that once would have been considered aberrant, overreaching, and impermissible are now considered ordinary, necessary, and justified as long as they occur in the counter-terrorism context. This change is persistent, and it has far reaching implications for the future of this foundational freedom.
