Legislation Compliance and Regulation , The Future Profession , The New Risks
In this fireside chat, Laura Gibb, Chief Executive of the Security Industry Authority (SIA), the regulator responsible for Martyn’s Law, joins Figen Murray OBE, the law’s driving force and tireless campaigner, for an open and practical conversation about what the legislation means for those responsible for public spaces. Moving beyond the headlines and misconceptions, they will explore the purpose of the legislation, address common concerns and explain how venues can approach their new responsibilities with confidence. A key focus will be proportionality, ensuring that protective measures are appropriate to the size and nature of each venue, without placing an unreasonable financial burden on smaller organisations.
