Abstract
After 9/11, the US introduced a public warning system for terrorism, the Homeland Security Advisory System: the first of its kind in the country.

Despite this, the UK introduced a similar system in 2006. Whilst some lessons appear to have been learned from the American experience, in other respects the UK approach is still a work in progress.
