HC Deb 21 November 2001 vol 375 c368W
Mr. Flight

To ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department how many requests for legal aid have been received from persons disputing through the courts an asset-freezing order relating to the terrorist activities; and, what assessment she has made of the likely sums involved. [16025]

Ms Rosie Winterton

The Legal Services Commission's Special Cases Unit, which would receive any request for funding in cases involving asset-freezing orders based on allegations of terrorist activities, has no record of receiving any such requests.
