(BBC) Introducing a new law requiring public venues to better protect people from terror attacks is seen as a “top priority” by the security minister.
A year ago the public inquiry into the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing found a series of security failures and missed opportunities to prevent the atrocity.
A lawyer for seven bereaved Arena families has criticised how long it was taking to introduce Protect Duty laws.
But Security Minister Damian Hinds said the government had to “get it right.”
The government said it intended to introduce legislation during the current parliamentary session.
