Anti-Terrorism laws and data retention: war is over?
>> 10th January 2004 - Walker, C., & Akdeniz, Y.
The Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 signals a determined response to the attacks of
September 11th. One aspect involves the facilitation of the use of electronic surveillance in
order to prevent, detect or prosecute the perpetrators of terrorism. The role of Part XI of the
2001 Act is to augment existing surveillance powers in the Regulation of Investigatory Powers
Act 2000. This papers plots the relationships between those two statutes and also their
relationship to data protection laws. Delays and difficulties in enforcement are noted and are
related to a process of return to greater normality after an initial period of panic.
