Martyn’s Law (Terrorism Protection of Premises Bill) is a pending UK wide legislation that will place a requirement on those responsible for Events to consider the threat from terrorism and implement appropriate and proportionate mitigation measures. CCTV normally forms a huge part of this, particularly for off site Gold/Silver or Bronze command.
Events with a capacity greater than eight hundred people will also be required to produce a risk assessment and security plan, considered to a ‘reasonably practicable’ standard. At Dot 239 we are very pleased to have Direct Health Consultants through Previse Events that when required can advise our end clients on their legal requirements and design factors.
