This amendment anticipates that, if a threat emerges to others, such as parliamentarians or other garden users, the reaction of the promoters will not be to say, “We must find somewhere better”. It is more likely that they will say, on police advice, that there will now be a security search of everyone entering the gardens, as the only way to guarantee security for some is to search everybody. That is the easy way out. We might find them demanding that there should be only one gate in and out, with security on it. They might want to construct some new pathway for other users to divert them away from the learning centre.
