Private security industry

Section 43: Extension of approval scheme

203.Section 43 amends the 2001 Act to extend the SIA’s Approved Contractor Scheme (to be known as the “Approval Scheme”), provided under section 15 of the 2001 Act, to enable in-house private security services to apply for approved status.

204.The SIA is required under section 14 of the 2001 Act to establish and maintain a register of approved providers of security industry services. The register has to contain particulars of every person who is approved under arrangements which the SIA has to make under section 15 of the 2001 Act. Section 15 provides that approvals must be subject to certain conditions.

205.The SIA carries out its obligations under sections 14 and 15 of the 2001 Act by way of its Approved Contractor Scheme. This is a voluntary scheme, which has been developed in consultation with representatives from the private security industry, under which security providers who satisfactorily meet the agreed standards can obtain approved status. Approved status carries benefits for those contractors who hold it. The amendments made to sections 14 and 15 by section 43 enable approved status to be available to businesses which have in-house security arrangements and wish, for example, to establish their quality. As the scheme will no longer apply only to contractors, it is to be renamed the ‘Approval Scheme’.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
