(BBC) Emergency legislation designed to end the release of people convicted of terrorism offences halfway through their sentence has been approved by MPs.
The measures — which would apply to England, Scotland and Wales — were drawn up after the attack in Streatham, south London, earlier this month.
The attacker, Sudesh Amman, had been freed from prison 10 days earlier.
The bill is now set to be debated in the House of Lords.
It passed the House of Commons unopposed and the government hopes the measures will become law by the end of the month.
