(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 specifies another name for the organisation referred to in article 2, which is listed in that Schedule as Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham) (Dawat al Islamiya fi Iraq wa al Sham (DAISh)).
An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
2000 c. 11; section 3(6) was inserted by section 22(2) of the Terrorism Act 2006 (c. 11).
A relevant amending instrument is S.I. 2014/1624.
