§ 32. Dr. StarkeyTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement on his plans for regulating door supervisors. [126151]
§ Mr. Charles ClarkeWe issued a White Paper last year proposing that a new authority should be set up to license those who work in the private security field, and to improve standards in the industry. We proposed that the scheme should apply to door supervisors. Legislation will be introduced as soon as Parliamentary time permits.
As my hon. Friend is aware, we are also considering other issues relating to the regulation of door supervisors, in consultation with local authority, police and other interests.
