HL Deb 18 February 1997 vol 578 c49WA
Lord Dean of Harptree

asked Her Majesty's Government:

When they intend to publish the report from Mr. J. J. Rowe, QC on the operation in 1996 of the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1989.

Baroness Blatch

My right honourable friend has today arranged for copies of Mr. Rowe's report to be placed in the Library. Mr. Rowe recommends that the legislation should be renewed in its entirety for a further 12 months. This is also the Government's view, and a draft order to give effect to this is being laid before the House today.
