The Private Security Industry (Licences) (Amendment) Regulations 2005

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

These Regulations amend the Private Security Industry (Licences) Regulations 2004. Regulations 3 and 4 of the 2004 Regulations prescribe the form which a licence issued by the Security Industry Authority under the Private Security Industry Act 2001 must take and the conditions that must be attached to such a licence where the licence relates to those licensable activities contained in paragraph 8 of Schedule 2 to the Act (door supervisors etc for public houses, clubs and comparable venues). Regulations 3 and 4 of these Regulations extend Regulations 3 and 4 of the 2004 Regulations to cover licences issued in respect of licensable activities contained in paragraph 3 (immobilisation of vehicles) or paragraph 3A (removal and restriction of vehicles) of Schedule 2 to the Act. Regulation 5 of these Regulations inserts a new regulation 4A into the 2004 Regulations which provides additional conditions which must be attached to licences issued to those conducting front line licensable activities falling within paragraphs 3 and 3A of Schedule 2 to the Act.
