The Government is expected to confirm
today that it intends to take action to
ban interviews with terrorist
organisations such as the IRA.
The Homj Secretary, Mr Purd, is
expected to outline plans to starve
terrorists of@what Mrs Thatcher has
described as "the oxygen of publicity".
A BBC correspondent says it is
understood the ban will also cover
Sinn Fein, the political wing of the
IRA. It is not clear whether the ban
will cover newspapers as well as radio
and TV.
