The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many organisations that are currently proscribed were prescribed for reasons that did not include that organisation (a) committing, (b) enabling or (c) encouraging (i) serious acts of violence against a person or (ii) any other form of endangerment to people's lives.

Answered by Dan Jarvis

The list of proscribed organisations and the reasons for their proscription can be found on GOV.UK, as well as in the Explanatory Memorandums for the Statutory Instruments that have listed proscribed organisations under schedule 2 of the Terrorism Act 2000.
