## Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)
Part 2 of the Terrorism Act 2000 makes provision about proscribed organisations (including the offences in respect of such organisation set out in sections 11 to 13). An organisation is proscribed if it is listed in Schedule 2 to that Act or operates under the same name as an organisation so listed (section 3(1)).
Section 3(6) of that Act (as inserted by section 22(2) of the Terrorism Act 2006) enables the Secretary of State, by order, to provide that a name that is not specified in Schedule 2 to that Act is to be treated as another name for an organisation that is listed in that Schedule. Accordingly, article 2 of this Order exercises this power to specify another name for the listed organisation referred to in that article.
