In A (FC) and others (FC) (Appellants) v. Secretary of State for the Home Department (Respondent) etc., what does "(FC)" mean? – Kaihsu 16:07, 2004 Dec 17 (UTC)

Iceland asset freeze
I've been looking into this act since it was used against Landbanki/icesave and how much of the debate that has ensued has focussed on this being an anti-terror act. I don't think it's fair to say that Sections 1-3 of the act refer to "Terrorist finances". The act itself only makes reference to terrorism in Part 1; the Landsbanki Freezing Order 2008 was drawn up from Part 2 of the Act which makes no refernce to terrorism.

 * I have also done some research and found an interesting extract from the House of Lords Hansard.
 * "As emergency legislation, that Bill was hardly debated in the Commons, as MPs have subsequently pointed out on several occasions—for example, in the other place on 25 February 2004 at col. 312. David Blunkett’s explanation of the asset-freezing powers at the time, however, was quite clear:"
 * "The emergency legislation will build on the provisions of the Proceeds of Crime Bill to deal specifically with terrorist finance through monitoring and freezing the accounts of suspected terrorists"
 * As this was the interpretation of the then Home Secretary it may be worth noting in the article. Road Wizard (talk) 08:10, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

I've changed the titles of the sections based on the referenced House of Lords debate: it is obvious that the government did not intend Parts 2 and 3 to be limited to terrorist activities. Physchim62 (talk) 10:19, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
 * In particular, see the comments of Lord Renton at HL Debates 28 November 2001 c. 349:
 * or, for the government, Lord McIntosh of Haringey, at the time Captain of the Yeomen of the Guard, at HL Debates 28 November 2001 c. 353:
 * When Lord McIntosh says that "The sanctions have been available for many years", he is referring to the fact that they were first introduced in the Defence (General) Regulations 1939. Physchim62 (talk) 10:36, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
