EXTRADITION

Instruments of ratification of an extradition treaty between the United Kingdom and Libya were exchanged on 29th April 2009. Article 2 of the Order amends article 2(2) of the Extradition Act 2003 (Designation of Part 2 Territories) Order 2003 (‘the 2003 Order’) and thereby designates Libya as a category 2 territory for the purposes of the Extradition Act 2003 (‘the 2003 Act’). The effect of designation as a category 2 territory is that extradition requests made by Libya to the United Kingdom will fall to be considered under Part 2 of the 2003 Act.
