foreign nationals had been detained and held using these powers at <a href="/wiki/Belmarsh_(HM_Prison)" class="mw-redirect" title="Belmarsh (HM Prison)">Belmarsh</a>. Eight were detained in December 2001, one in February 2002, two in April 2002, one in October 2002, one in November 2002, two in January 2002 and one in October 2003.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> One further individual has been certified but is detained under other powers. Of the total detained, two have voluntarily left the United Kingdom. The other fourteen remained in detention as of 18 November 2003. The Council of Europe reported in a document dated 23 July 2004 that according to information supplied to their delegation by the authorities, in March 2004, there were fourteen persons certified as suspected international terrorists and deprived of their liberty in the United Kingdom. Twelve of them were being detained exclusively under Part 4 of the Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001, of whom half since December 2001.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Appeals">Appeals</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anti-terrorism,_Crime_and_Security_Act_2001&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Appeals"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Act did provide a process for appealing to a judicial tribunal against the Home Secretary's decision to detain in each case. However, the government had argued that a special appellate process was needed to deal with these appeals because of the possibility that much of the evidence or information upon which the Home Secretary's suspicions may be based was likely to be sensitive information of a confidential nature whose release to the person detained or the public might compromise intelligence methods, operatives, and other persons. Therefore, the process established by the ATCSA involved special rules of evidence which most notably permitted the exclusion of the detainees and their legal representatives from proceedings. In an attempt to ensure that their rights were safeguarded at these times, special security-vetted "special advocates" were appointed in the place of their legal representatives. However, there is some evidence that these special advocates experienced difficulties effectively protecting their interests, and two of the special advocates subsequently resigned from their positions following the December 2004 ruling of the House of Lords. </p><p>In October 2002 the <a href="/wiki/Special_Immigration_Appeals_Commission" title="Special Immigration Appeals Commission">Special Immigration Appeals Commission</a> decided that the Home Secretary's derogation was lawful, and that there was indeed a "state of emergency threatening the life of the nation". </p><p>A series of legal challenges were made in respect of the powers and processes established under the ATCSA and on 16 December 2004, the <a href="/wiki/Judicial_Committee_of_the_House_of_Lords" class="mw-redirect" title="Judicial Committee of the House of Lords">Law Lords</a> ruled that the powers of detention conferred by Part 4 of ATCSA were incompatible with the UK's obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights. The Court ruled by a majority of 8–1 that the purported derogation was not authorised by <a href="/wiki/European_Convention_on_Human_Rights#Article_15_–_derogations" title="European Convention on Human Rights">Article 15 of the European Convention on Human Rights</a> since the measures taken could not rationally be held to be "strictly required by the exigencies of the situation", and were also discriminatory contrary to Article 14 of the Convention. </p><p>The ruling could be summed up as follows:<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <ul><li>No detention pending deportation had lasted for more than seven days, let alone three years.</li> <li>The law was unjustifiably discriminatory. What if a British citizen was also suspected of terrorism which required that they be detained indefinitely without trial? There was no way to do it.</li> <li>There was no observable state of emergency threatening the life of the nation. No other European country which had experienced far more severe crises had declared such a state of emergency over such a long time period, and certainly without anyone noticing.</li></ul> <p>The Court quashed the order derogating from the UK's obligations under the Convention, and issued a declaration pursuant to section 4 of the <a href="/wiki/Human_Rights_Act_1998" title="Human Rights Act 1998">Human Rights Act 1998</a> that the provisions of the ATCSA which empowered the preventative detention of non-British suspected international terrorists were incompatible with the European Convention. The effect of such a declaration in British law is not to deprive the legislation of legal effect, and Parliament may, if it wishes, refuse to repeal or amend any provision declared to be incompatible. However the making of a declaration of incompatibility carries strong moral force, and creates considerable political pressure to address the incompatibility. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Replacement_of_Part_4">Replacement of Part 4</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anti-terrorism,_Crime_and_Security_Act_2001&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Replacement of Part 4"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>To this end Part 4 of the ATCSA was replaced by the <a href="/wiki/Prevention_of_Terrorism_Act_2005" title="Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005">Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005</a> in March 2005.
