National Domestic Extremism Intelligence Unit

The unit was created in 2004 under the Association of Chief Police Officers in Wales and England. The purpose of the unit is to directly combat domestic extremism in society including acts of terrorism motivated by extremism. The unit was developed and put into action in 2004. It was started up again based on the Special Demonstration Squad (which served the same purpose as the current NDEDIU) that was developed in the 1960s. It was shut down in 2008 but then took up the role of the Special Demonstration Squad. wiki
