Martyn's Law & Fire Alarm Systems – A Pathway Towards Compliance

This presentation explores the implications of Martyn’s Law (the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025) and its impact on publicly accessible buildings, focusing on how organisations prepare for compliance ahead of enforcement in April 2027.

The session outlines the background to the legislation following the Manchester Arena attack, explains the tiered framework for Standard (200–799 persons) and Enhanced (800+ persons) duty premises, and clarifies the responsibilities of the “Responsible Person”.

Key requirements such as staff training, emergency procedures for evacuation, invacuation and lockdown, communication strategies, and engagement with the Security Industry Authority are examined, emphasising proportionate, risk‑based approaches rather than prescriptive solutions.
