Martyn's Law: working together to prepare
What was announced
Laura Gibb, the SIA's Executive Director for Martyn's Law, updates on how the SIA is working with premises and events and on new resources.
Key points, in the publisher's words
- We know that as we draw nearer to Martyn’s Law coming into force, many of you are eager to prepare. My update this month describes some new tools we’ve released to help you do that.
- We have been clear from the outset that we cannot build a new regulatory function without engagement, testing and feedback from the very premises and qualifying events whose compliance we will be assessing.
- It’s what sees us travelling all over the UK to attend events and hear first-hand from you. Thank you to membership groups and bodies for continuing to invite us to speak your audiences.
