Description

New guidance on the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, has been published by the Home Office to set out clear steps for businesses who need to comply with this legislation.

Over the years, the UK has suffered various levels of terror-related incidents. To better protect people in public spaces, the UK Government has introduced the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill – also known as ‘Martyn’s Law’. Businesses that fall under the legislation must comply with the new health and safety laws. Any evidence of breaches could end up facing serious sanctions and financial penalties.

In this bitesize webinar, Chris Wagstaff will look at what Martyn’s Law is, who it applies to, and how to prepare your business for the possibility of a terrorist attack.

  • The changes to Martyn's Law and how this will impact businesses

  • What compliance criteria will premises be expected to meet

  • What documentation and processes you need in place
