Security Industry, Northern Ireland
The Private Security Industry Act 2001 (Designated Activities) (Northern Ireland) Order 2009
Made 18th November 2009
Laid before Parliament 19th November 2009
Coming into force 1st December 2009

The Secretary of State, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 3(3) of the Private Security Industry Act 2001 and by section 48(4) of the Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007, makes the following Order.
2001 c.12. This Act was extended to Northern Ireland by section 48(3) of the Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 (c.6).
2007 c.6.
In accordance with section 48(4) of the Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 this Order repeals Schedule 6 to that Act with respect to activities designated by this Order.
Section 48(4) of the Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 (the “2007” Act) requires any order designating an activity as licensable conduct for the purposes of the Private Security Industry Act 2001 to repeal Schedule 6 to the 2007 Act insofar as that Schedule applies to the activity being designated (Schedule 6 provides interim arrangements for licensing the private security industry in Northern Ireland). Schedule 6 applies to those providing services as security guards; this Order will designate all forms of manned guarding as licensable conduct from 1st December 2009 so it repeals Schedule 6 in its entirety from that date.
The Secretary of State has, in accordance with section 24(4) of the Private Security Industry Act 2001, consulted the Security Industry Authority and the Scottish Ministers.
Section 24(4) of the 2001 Act has been amended by paragraph 11(e) of Schedule 15 to the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 (c.15).
