Labour — Edinburgh East and Musselburgh

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 December 2024

Debate

Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill

Contribution

To clarify, I was not saying the legislation was only of value after an event. I said that part of its value was the impact it had on planning for the period after an event. On the burden the right hon. Gentleman talks about on people making preparations, does he accept that it is important that they consider the potential impact of events and think in advance about that in taking those decisions? That is how we will avoid the kind of atrocities we have seen.
