HC Deb 18 February 1982 vol 18 c191W
32. Mr. Parry

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he proposes to seek the renewal of the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act.

Mr. Whitelaw

The Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1976 is due to lapse, unless renewed, on 24 March. Renewal of the Act will require affirmative resolution by both Houses of Parliament, and I shall shortly lay a draft continuance order before Parliament.
