Prime Minister Gordon Brown said on Sunday he wanted a central register of known or suspected terrorists so that information could be shared internationally.
He spoke as his new Security Minister Admiral Alan West warned the defeat of militant radicalism could take up to 15 years, and urged people to become informers.
"If there is information in one country about the potential recruitment or the actual recruitment of someone to a terrorist group then that should be information that is flowing to other countries," Brown told Sky News.
..."This is not a quick thing. I believe it will take 10 to 15 years," West told the Sunday Telegraph newspaper. "But I believe it can be done as long as we as a nation apply ourselves to it and it's done across the board."
He urged Britons who had knowledge or suspicion of terrorist activities to inform the authorities.
"Britishness does not normally involve snitching or talking about someone. I'm afraid, in this situation, anyone who's got any information should say something because the people we are talking about are trying to destroy our entire way of life," he said.
