Part 2: Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Commentary on Sections Section 20: TPIMs: miscellaneous amendments
91.Subsection (1) amends section 3(1) of the TPIM Act so that, before imposing a TPIM notice, the Secretary of State must be satisfied on the balance of probabilities (rather than that he or she must “reasonably believe”, as before) that an individual is, or has been, involved in terrorism-related activity.
92.Subsection (2) amends section 4 of the TPIM Act so that for the purposes of that Act, involvement in terrorism-related activity does not include conduct which gives support or assistance to individuals who are known or believed by the individual concerned to be involved in conduct which facilitates or gives encouragement to the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, or which is intended to do so.
