Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill — New Clause 12 — Review of International Best Practice Around Deradicalisation — 16 Dec 2014 at 17:15

The majority of MPs voted against requiring a review into international best practice around deradicalisation.

The Collins Dictionary defines deradicalisation[1] as:

  • the practice of encouraging those with extreme and violent religious or political ideologies to adopt more moderate views

MPs were considering the Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill.[2]

The proposed new clause rejected in this vote stated:

  • ‘(1) The Secretary of State Shall, within three months of this Act coming into force, lay before both Houses of Parliament a review into international best practice around deradicalisation.
  • (2) The review under subsection (1) shall include in particular—
  • (a) examination of best practice in—
  • (i) Germany;
  • (ii) Denmark;
  • (iii) Sweden;
  • (iv) other countries as determined by the Secretary of State.
  • (b) the role of community-based organisations in developing and delivering strategies to prevent radicalisation and to deradicalise individuals.
  • (c) evidence-based recommendations for the rapid implementation of a comprehensive deradicalisation programme in the UK.’
