Terrorists who mastermind atrocities in Britain against the United States could be extradited to face the death penalty there.
The move is being considered as part of a tough new set of anti-terror laws. At present, Britain can't send any suspect for trial in a country where they might face capital punishment.
But Downing Street officials fear that measures to speed up extradition will be undermined if the ban is retained. The change is likely to run into trouble with human rights activists and European law.
