Britain's security services must improve the systems used for ongoing investigations into suspected terrorists, the Chief Coroner's London Bridge attack report has urged.
The recommendations, following the inquests into the deaths of eight people in the June 2017 attack, included implementing more robust systems for determining potential attack sites and reviewing those targets regularly.
Other recommendations include:
- Review into protective security equipment and infrastructure which can be installed in response to emerging threats.
- Improve technical measures to assist in identifying exact location of emergency services personnel and casualties.
- Consider new offences for crimes including possessing the most serious material which glorifies or encourages terrorism.
- Improve facilities for translating communications received from foreign security and intelligence services.
- Enhance first aid capabilities and equipment of either police officers generally or groups of officers (eg firearms officers or officers designated for advanced medical aid training).
