I now turn to Amendment 24A, in the name of the noble Lord, Lord Sandhurst. If I may, I want to give the noble Lord one clear message; it is not my message, but one from the lessons of the Manchester Arena attack. One of the key findings of the Manchester Arena inquiry was that there was an unclear division of responsibility between those in authority for ensuring the safety of those present at the site. To that end, the whole purpose of this legislation is to put in place a number of measures that are required, and to ensure that there is clarity within the scope of the legislation for determining the persons responsible at each and every premises and event.
