Therefore, the Government do not propose to offer financial support. Businesses and other organisations will have to take the responsibility to protect their staff, customers or users, and we believe that it is right that they meet the costs of complying with the requirements themselves. Complying with the requirements is intended to make staff and visitors feel safer by ensuring that organisations are better prepared for and ready to respond to a terrorist attack. We have covered that in a range of debates, both at Second Reading and in Committee.
