HC Deb 23 January 1980 vol 977 c218W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when he expects to complete his proposals for strengthening the law in relation to terrorism.

Mr. Humphrey Atkins

I keep the law in Northern Ireland relating to terrorism under constant review in order to ensure that those who engage in terrorist activity will be punished with all due severity. If new legislation is necessary, I shall submit proposals to the House in the normal way.
