Paramilitary Organisations

There is evidence that paramilitary organisations, both loyalist and republican, are moving assets from criminal enterprises into legitimate businesses. In view of that, can the Minister give an assurance that the police and the Assets Recovery Agency will continue to pursue the profits of crime, even if they have been laundered in that way, so that no paramilitary group can benefit from preying on the communities of Northern Ireland?

Mr. Lidington: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions what the terms of reference are of his Department's review of policy towards traveller encampments; when he intends to publish the conclusions of the review; and if he will make a statement. [7155] Ms Keeble: [holding answer 15 October 2001]: Research has been conducted to review the effectiveness of the current DTLR/Home Office Good Practice Guidance on Managing Unauthorised Camping. A summary of the findings will be published shortly, during the week commencing 29 October, and a copy placed in the Library of the House. The terms of reference for the research were to: (i) explore the extent to which local authorities and police are aware of the guidance; (ii) determine the extent to which the guidance has been used by, and met the requirements of, local authorities and the police; (iii) explore whether the guidance has encouraged local authorities to take a fresh look at existing policies on unauthorised camping; (iv) examine whether local authorities, in reviewing existing policies, are working in partnership with the local police force; liaising with neighbouring authorities; bringing together departments within their authority with an interest in the issues and involving Gypsies and Travellers. (v) identify the extent to which local authorities and the police are making use of the statutory Crime Reduction Partnerships in the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 to tackle anti-social behaviour associated with unauthorised camping. (vi) examine the impact of action taken in response to the guidance on crime and disorder associated with unauthorised encampments; (vii) identify any gaps in the current guidance, and highlight additional examples of good practice, including examples of joint-working between local authorities and the police; (viii) establish to what extent local authorities and police forces are making use of their current legal powers to deal with the problem of unauthorised camping.
