Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 Elizabeth II. Chapter 24

The aim of the Act is to strengthen powers to counter the increased international terrorist threat in the UK, in the light of the September 11th terrorist attacks in the US. The Act covers issues including: terrorist property, freezing orders, disclosure of information, immigration and asylum, race and religion, the control of toxins, nuclear security, aviation security, police powers, and the retention of communications data. Key measures include new powers to detain those suspected of being terrorists. Changes are also proposed to speed up the asylum process, where the Secretary of State considers the removal of a suspected terrorist would be conducive to the public good. These decisions will be subject to regular independent review by the Special Immigration Appeals Commission, but the decisions of this body will no longer be subject to judicial review
