The figures for Great Britain are likely to understate the numbers of people who have been prosecuted and convicted for these offences as information is only collected on the most serious offence for which a person is charged or convicted. Proscription sends a strong message that terrorist organisations are not tolerated in the UK and deters them from operating here.</p><p>Proscription is an important tool available to the Government, police and security service to disrupt terrorist activity. It makes it a criminal offence to belong to or support a proscribed group. Proscription can also support other disruptive activities, including immigration disruptions, prosecution for other offences, EU asset freezes and broader action to deter fundraising and recruitment. Additionally, all resources of a proscribed organisation are terrorist property and subject to seizure.</p>

star this property answer text <p>We welcome those who wish to make a life in the UK with their family, work hard and make a contribution, but family life must not be established here at the taxpayer's expense. The minimum income threshold under the family Immigration Rules for sponsoring a non-European Economic Area national spouse to come to the UK aims to prevent burdens on the taxpayer and promote integration. Its level reflects advice from the independent Migration Advisory Committee on the income which means a family settled in the UK will generally cease to be able to access income-related benefits.</p><p>The employment prospects of the migrant spouse are no guarantee that they will find work in the UK. Those with an appropriate job offer here can apply under Tier 2 of the Points Based System. Migrant spouses coming to the UK under the family route must be capable of being independently supported by their sponsor or by their joint savings or non-employment income. The courts have agreed that this is a matter of public policy for the Government and Parliament to determine.</p>
