Understanding what’s required
Martyn's Law
Martyn’s Law, formally known as the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act, introduces a more structured approach to managing the risk of terrorism in publicly accessible locations including events, venues and public-facing environments.
For many organisations, this means reviewing existing arrangements and ensuring they are clearly defined, proportionate and consistently applied.
The requirements will depend on the size and nature of your venue or event, with the emphasis on taking a clear, structured approach that reflects how your space is used, rather than introducing unnecessary complexity.
What it means in practice
You will need to:
-
Understand how your space could be vulnerable
-
Consider the risks in a practical, site-specific way
-
Put in place proportionate measures
-
Ensure staff are aware of their role
