Partial Regulatory Impact Assessment - Regulations to implement the Private Security Industry Act 2001 in respect of manned guards and keyholder

Since the Private Security Industry Act 2001 was passed the Home Office has been working with the Security Industry Authority to develop policies, structures and procedures under which the Authority will regulate the private security industry. The SIA was formally established as a non-departmental public body on 1 April 2003 and is responsible to the Home Secretary for its performance.

Following the introduction of licensing for door supervisors, which had effect from March 2004 (on a regional roll-out), the Government has decided that regulation should now be extended to the manned guarding and keyholders sector. The Home Secretary is keen to ensure that the proposals are fully available to interested stakeholders for consideration and comment.

Consultation on this document ended on 24 January 2005.
