The Counter-Terrorism and Security Act contains powers to help the UK respond to the threat of terrorism and will:
- disrupt the ability of people to travel abroad to engage in terrorist activity and then return to the UK
- enhance the ability of operational agencies to monitor and control the actions of those who pose a threat
- combat the underlying ideology that feeds, supports and sanctions terrorism
Additionally, the act will:
- give the police power to temporarily seize a passport at the border, so that they can investigate the individual
- create a Temporary Exclusion Order that can temporarily disrupt a British citizen suspected of involvement in terrorist activity abroad from returning to the UK
- place strong restrictions on where individuals can go and require them to attend meetings as part of their ongoing management
- improve law enforcement agencies’ ability to find out who is responsible for sending internet communications accessing an internet communications service
- enhance our aviation, maritime and rail border security, with provisions relating to passenger data, ‘no fly’ lists, and security and screening measures
- ensure that UK-based insurance firms cannot reimburse the payment of terrorist ransoms
- clarify the scope of power to examine goods at (or near) ports
- provide a general duty on a range of organisations to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism
