Draft legislation for 'Martyn's Law' will be published by the Government within months followed by the introduction of a Bill to the House of Commons, the Home Secretary has said.
Suella Braverman revealed the update as she addressed MPs and delivered a statement on the Manchester Arena bombing following the publication last Thursday of the third and final report arising from the long-running public inquiry into the atrocity, which laid bare the radicalisation of mass murderer Salman Abedi and said MI5 missed a 'significant opportunity' to take action which could have prevented the attack.
Any new law - named in memory of victim Martyn Hett and launched following a campaign by his mother Figen Murray - will require public venues with a capacity of more than 100 people to introduce training and measures to combat terrorism or face sanctions.
