What to expect from the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) ‘Martyn’s Law’ draft bill Briefing.
The draft Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill sets out the requirements that, under Martyn’s Law, venues and other organisations will have to meet to ensure public safety. ‘Martyn’s Law’ spearheaded by Figen Murray as a tribute to her son Martyn Hett who was killed alongside 21 others in the Manchester Arena terrorist attack in 2017.
Please join Buro Happold as we unpack why Martyn’s Law is needed, who it will affect, what those affected will be required to do, and how Buro Happold can help. Areas covered within the briefing will include the current scope of the draft bill, the two-tier system and the proposed requirements of each tier, event-specific terms, expected governance and sanctions, and sectors currently out of scope.
