Proscribed Terrorist Organisations

Mr. Hayes
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list the UK-based organisations which are listed as proscribed terrorist organisations under international agreements to which the UK is a party.

Mr. McNulty
Both the EU and the UN maintain lists of terrorist organisations. Member states are obliged to apply financial sanctions (such as asset freezes) on the organisations on these lists.

The EU list can be accessed at the following website:
