Terrorism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Pat McFadden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Terrorism Bill 2005-06.
Does my hon. Friend agree that there is greater clarity in the Bill than has been implied in questions about Kashmir and the Tamils or, in a completely different dimension, in the Conservatives’ suggestion that the Taoiseach might be arrested at Heathrow airport for attending a commemoration of the Easter rising? Is not that clarity provided by the provision that anyone engaged in such an act could "““reasonably be expected to infer””" that someone would emulate them? There is guidance in the legislation that will enable people to draw a distinction between someone making a political point about Kashmir, for example, and someone who is engaged in glorifying terrorism.
