My Lords, I beg to move that the Committee consider the draft Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Act 2011,  the Continuation Order of 2026, which was laid before the House on the 14th of September 2026.  My Lords, this order provides for the continuation of the Secretary of State's powers under the Terrorism Prevention and Investigations Measures Act of 2011, also known as the TPIM powers.  The continuation is for a further five years.  My Lords, I think you noble Lords will accept it's the first duty of government to protect the public and central to that mission is to counter the threat we face from terrorism, 

a threat which sadly is enduring and evolving.  In response, there's a range of tools including the powers conferred on the Secretary of State by the Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Act of 2011,  which I well recall having shadowed the act at the time as shadow minister for these issues.  The measures ensure that where prosecution or deportation is not possible,  the Secretary of State can impose specified restrictions and requirements on an individual involved in terrorism-related activity to protect the public from a risk of terrorism.

Section 21 of the Act states that the Secretary of State's TPIM powers will expire at the end of five years from the day the Act was passed.  The orders have been renewed twice in 2016 and 2021,  and these powers are due to expire at the end of the 13th of December 2026.  And as TPIMs remain an important part of the UK's counter-terrorism toolkit, we seek to renew them today.  This power is supported by the Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation, the Investigatory Powers Commissioner and the Director General of the Security Services.
