(This note is not part of the Order)
Part 2 of the Terrorism Act 2000 makes provision about proscribed organisations (including setting out offences in relation to such organisations in sections 11 to 13). An organisation is proscribed if it is listed in Schedule 2 to that Act or operates under the same name as an organisation so listed (section 3(1)).
Section 3(6) of the Terrorism Act 2000 (as inserted by section 22(2) of the Terrorism Act 2006) enables the Secretary of State, by order, to provide that a name that is not specified in Schedule 2 to that Act is to be treated as another name for an organisation that is listed in that Schedule. Article 2 of this Order exercises this power to specify other names for the organisation referred to in article 2, which is listed in that Schedule as both Lashkar-e Jhangvi and Sipah-e Sahaba Pakistan.
2000 c.11; section 3(6) was inserted by section 22(2) of the Terrorism Act 2006 (c.11).
The relevant amendment was made by S.I. 2005/2982.
