ACPO Terrorism & allied matters committee
01 January 1995
A "satellite" unit of the Metropolitan Police Anti-Terrorist Branch (SO13) has been set up in the north of England to support local forces; a similar move in the Midlands is being considered. One of the recommendations to follow from the revision of the Home Office Guidelines on the Special Branch is for the transfer of the national database on Irish terrorism from the Met Special Branch to MI5. Two new committees have been formed: the Steering Committee on Ports and the Animal Rights National Index Steering Committee.
