asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department in how many instances and in what circumstances the powers under the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Acts have been used in Wales.

Table 2 of Home Office Statistical Bulletin 1/80, a copy of which is in the Library of the House, gives figures of detentions under the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Acts 1974 and 1976 by police forces in Wales from 29 November 1974 to 31 December 1979. In the same period four exclusion orders were made following applications from police forces in Wales, as provided for in sections 3 to 6 of the 1976 Act.
