HC Deb 05 November 1987 vol 121 c823W
47. Mr. Stevens

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what recent evidence he has about the effectiveness of the Prevention of Terrorism Act.

Mr. Hurd

In reply to a question from my hon. Friend the Member for Derbyshire, West (Mr. McLoughlin) on 8 April, at column239, I announced that I had asked Viscount Colville of Culross to carry out a general review of this Act. I hope to be able to place Lord Colville's report before the House shortly.
