I should have added in answer to my hon. Gentleman asked me if I could list all the Governments who have made representations seeking to proscribe the organisations. The answer is no, but it is in the public domain that a large number of Governments in the originating territories have made public statements seeking the proscription of the equivalent of these organisations by Governments across the world. On the hon. Gentleman's question about whether I will disclose the degree of liaison that exists with security and intelligence services overseas, for reasons that I think he will understand, the answer to that is no.
Members have the opportunity to speak.
May I pursue my right hon. The organisation itself has made it clear that they are not, and have not been, members of the organisation. The other charges that have been cited against the organisation do not make sense if the connections do not exist. Sikhs raise money in the United Kingdom, but they do so for entirely social purposes. That is consistent with other observations that there is no evidence of a threat to the west from the organisation's activities.
