<p>Martyn’s Law, formerly known as the Protect Duty, will be published as a draft
Bill for pre-legislative scrutiny this Spring. Alongside this, the Home Office will
publish an impact assessment and a further, updated, impact assessment will be completed
prior to formal introduction of the Bill as parliamentary time allows. The Home Office
will also undertake a new burdens assessment and assess any requirements arising from
it.</p><p>A wealth of support, advice and guidance will be provided for all those
captured by Martyn’s Law, should it be passed. This is currently in development and
will be published prior to any Royal Assent. ProtectUK has been developed as the new
online protective security hub, offering advice and guidance from trusted experts
in policing and Counter Terrorism security. The platform is available to industry
and the public and will be updated regularly with added information and increased
functionality.</p>
