<p>The Government is grateful to the Home Affairs Commitee for the pre-legislative scrutiny undertaken. We remain committed to introducing the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill in this session of Parliament. The Bill which was announced in the King’s Speech on Tuesday 7th November.</p><p>Ahead of introduction, we will soon launch a public consultation on proposed amendments to the Bill’s Standard Tier, in light of the recommendations from HASC and wider engagement activity. We recognise the Bill must strike the right balance between public protection and avoiding undue burdens on smaller premises.</p><p>The Government is carefully considering its response to the Home Affairs Select Committee, which will be provided alongside a Government response to the consultation.</p><p> </p>
