[ Quote: ] Julia Goldsworthy (Lib Dem, Falmouth and Camborne) asked whether it is true that Icelandic assets have been frozen under anti-terrorism legislation, and if so how this could be justified. Stephen Timms, Financial Secretary to the Treasury, confirmed in a casual tone that this was indeed the law which had been used, because â€œthatâ€™s where the power happened to beâ€, as if there was nothing odd in using such legislation for a purpose for which it cannot originally have been intended.
