Whether the Home Secretary exercised powers conferred on him by the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1984 when he ordered the deportation of Libyans since the shooting on 17th April and whether he intends to exercise powers under that Act to refuse entry to this country of other Libyans.
§ Lord EltonNo. But the three Libyans who were deported in the week beginning 23rd April were initially detained under the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1984.
