HC Deb 19 May 1994 vol 243 cc567-8W
13. Miss Emma Nicholson

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what plans he has to improve the legislation dealing with terrorism.

Mr. Howard

As my hon. Friend will be aware, Parliament recently renewed the Prevention of Terrorism Act. The Criminal Justice and Public Order Bill contains new police stop and search powers, creates two new offences and improves the legislation relating to the investigation of terrorism.
