Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Act 2011
2011 CHAPTER 23
Summary
Sections 1-4 and Schedule 1: New regime to protect the public from terrorism
19.Sections 1-4 of the Act repeal the 2005 Act and provide that the Secretary of State may impose measures on an individual by serving a notice (a “TPIM notice”) on him or her if certain conditions are met. These include in particular a higher threshold for the imposition of a TPIM notice (reasonable belief that the individual is or has been involved in terrorism-related activity) than existed in relation to control orders (reasonable suspicion of involvement in such activity).
20.Schedule 1 sets out the types of measures that may be imposed. Only measures described in Schedule 1 may be imposed. This gives the Secretary of State more tightly prescribed powers than the 2005 Act, which provided a non-exhaustive list of the obligations that could be imposed under control orders but allowed the Secretary of State to impose any obligation considered necessary to prevent or restrict an individual’s involvement in terrorism-related activity.
