Details

A summary of the airport security planning framework set out in the Policing and Crime Act 2009. All security stakeholders at each airport are required to work together to produce a joint threat and risk assessment for their airport and an agreed airport security plan. Where there is a dedicated police resource identified in the Plan, the airport operator, chief constable and police authority must additionally agree a police services agreement.
