Shaun Hipgrave, director Protect and Prepare for the Home Office, Office for Homeland Security, will discuss Martyn’s Law from a policy perspective and how it fits into the priorities for the Office for Homeland Security. This is a unique opportunity to understand the Government’s thinking behind the legislation that has been passed to Parliament.

NaCTSO (National Counter Terrorism Security Office) have been charged with ensuring Martyn’s Law is implemented once it hits the statute books, with preparations already underway to ensure they are ready. A senior NaCTSO official will talk about those preparations and how people can get real practical advice to ensure they are ready. Elsewhere, they will give insight into their future preparations; what they are looking at three to five years ahead.

Looking at the legislation from a different perspective, a panel discussion featuring Tobias Ellwood MP, chair of the Commons Defence Select Committee, Chris Medhurst-Cocksworth, head of Pool Re Solutions and a senior member of NaCTSO, will explore the practicalities behind Martyn’s Law from a parliamentary, implementation and insurance perspective.

Figen Murray OBE and Nick Aldworth will return with a panel delving into some of the areas within the draft legislation that may require amendment or clarifications, asking how the wider security community can help in the delivery of Martyn’s Law.
