EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

Part 2 of the Terrorism Act 2000 (c. 11) 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, in most cases, if it operates under the same name as an organisation so listed (section 3(1)).

Section 3(6) of that Act 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. Paragraphs (1) and (2) of article 2 of this Order specify other names for the organisation listed as "Revolutionary Peoples' Liberation Party-Front (Devrimci Halk Kurtulus Partisi-Cephesi) (DHKP-C)". (Note that the name specified in paragraph (2)(a) differs from the name in paragraph (1) by virtue of the placement of the apostrophe in the second word.) Paragraphs (3) and (4) of article 2 specify other names for the organisation listed as "Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham) (Dawat al Islamiya fi Iraq wa al Sham (DAISh))".

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.

2000 c. 11; section 3 was amended by sections 21 and 22 of the Terrorism Act 2006 (c. 11).

Relevant amending instruments are S.I. 2001/1261, 2014/1624.
