The site claims it removes extremist content within two hours
During that time, 229 terror videos which had previously been identified and removed were re-uploaded to the site - with 24 per cent staying up for more than the two-hour time limit.
One of the films was a bomb-making tutorial watched by Manchester bomber Salman Abedi.
Another - uploaded on six separate occasions - shows a terrorist saying to Prince Harry: "Why don't you come here and fight us if you're man enough, so we can send you and your Apaches to hellfire?"
The CEP accused YouTube of failing to use the most reliable technology to ensure extremist videos can't be uploaded after they've already been removed once.
One video available on YouTube targeted Prince Harry
Ex-minister Mark Simmonds told the Daily Mail: "This study dispels any lingering myth that YouTube are doing enough to stop their site being used as an IS recruitment tool.
"The research shows that YouTube are not even meeting their own promise to delete all extremist content within two hours.
"For them to fail in a quarter of all cases, with much of the content still available three days or more after first being uploaded, is unacceptable."
A spokesman for Google said: "We've invested heavily in people and technology to ensure we keep making progress to detect and remove terror content as quickly as possible.
"We're a founding member of the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism, which sees tech companies collaborate to keep terror content off the web."
