Home Affairs Committee Pre-legislative scrutiny of the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Draft Bill All items in this report Report on parliament.uk ↗ Inquiry on parliament.uk ↗

Conclusion (the committee's words)
Security at publicly accessible venues is vital in preventing and handling a terrorist attack. Yet there are some serious concerns about the education and procurement of security officers that the Draft Bill does not attempt to address, despite the fact the Government is “looking at it separately”. The Draft Bill presents an opportunity for the Government to address these issues.
