Martyn's Law: draft section 12 statutory guidance — consultation opened
The SIA is consulting on a draft of our 'section 12' guidance, which sets out how we propose to exercise our functions as the Martyn's Law regulator.
Martyn's Law establishes a legal duty for operators of publicly accessible premises and large events to assess and plan for terrorist threats, enforced through the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025. The Home Office and Security Industry Authority lead implementation, with statutory guidance now published to clarify security obligations for venues, event organisers, and contractors. The policy is active and moving into compliance and enforcement phase following consultation.
