Martyn's Law

Martyn's Law, the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, became law on April 3, 2025,

The Government intends for there to be an implementation period of at least 24 months before the Act comes into force, meaning around April 2027. The UK government has  an implementation period to allow for preparation, with guidance and support for responsible persons to be in place before enforcement begins. 

​

The thought behind this Act is to improve protective security and organisational preparedness by requiring that those responsible for certain premises and events consider how they would respond to a terrorist attack. In addition to this, at certain larger premises and events, appropriate steps to reduce vulnerability to terrorist attacks must also be considered. Through the Act, qualifying premises and events should be better prepared and protected, ready to respond in the event of a terrorist attack.

The Security Industry Authority (SIA) will be responsible for overseeing and enforcing Marty's Law.
