Conservative — Hinckley and Bosworth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 December 2024

Debate

Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill

Contribution

I think that the volunteer side in particular is concerning a lot of people. One thing that strikes me about new clause 2 is that, given that these are often volunteer organisations, who would fund the training? Has there been thought about who would pay for it and how much it would cost? Small venues like my village halls may struggle to make a couple of hundred pounds a year, let alone be able to afford further training. I wonder if the hon. Member would enlighten me on how that may work.
