Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 February 2025

Debate

Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill

Contribution

The purpose of the legislation—I make this argument to the Committee today—is not to jump to the last resort; rather, I want to ensure that the plans are put in place. Therefore, the plans are put in place by the SIA, helping to support the nominated person to make sure there are plans in place in the event of a terrorist attack. Penalty notices for non-compliance will be issued. Employees and volunteers are not responsible and will not be within that structure.
