Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 March 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on International Terrorism.
International Terrorism
I welcome the Home Secretary's statement and her commitment to continue to engage with communities. As events in Luton showed, it is extremely important to continue that process of engagement. She mentioned Mumbai, but security in major hotels and tourist places in such cities does not bear comparison with what is happening in London. Although I of course welcome everything the Government have done in training staff, it is vital that we continue to work with the private sector to ensure that it puts in place the necessary security arrangements in our major hotels and major tourist destinations, which will be targeted by terrorists, and we must prepare for that.
