HC Deb 19 December 1974 vol 883 cc498-9W
23. Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he will announce the names of the persons who will advise him on appeals against exclusion from Great Britain under the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1974.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave to a Question by my hon. Friend the Member for Belper (Mr. MacFarquhar) on 5th December.—[Vol. 882, c. 589.]

Mr. McNamara

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many persons have been served with exclusion orders under the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act; how many have been deported to (a) Northern Ireland and (b) the Republic of Ireland; how many have appealed against exclusion orders; and how many appeals have been successful.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

Notice of the making of an exclusion order has been served on five people. Of these, two did not exercise their right to make representations objecting to the order. They have been removed to the Irish Republic. The other three have made representations. These cases were referred to an adviser nominated by me. I have reconsidered the cases of two of these and I have decided not to revoke the exclusion orders I made. Both are being removed to Northern Ireland this afternoon. The case of the third is still under consideration.
