The Prevention of Terrorism (Exclusion Orders) Regulations 1996
These Regulations amend the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1989 (“the 1989 Act”) to take account of the judgment of the European Court of Justice in R v Secretary of State for the Home Department, ex parte Gallagher (30th November 1995) which interpreted Article 9.1 of Council Directive 64/221/EEC (OJ No. 056, 4.4.64, p.850, OJ/SE 1963-64 p.117) as prohibiting an administrative authority (except in cases of urgency) from taking a decision ordering expulsion before a competent authority has given its opinion.
