The Government is committed to ensuring the integrity of the private security industry and this includes the possible introduction of business licensing.
In July. the Government committed to a review (formerly triennial review) of the Security Industry Authority. That review may make further recommendations for legislative change that the Government would want to consider as a composite package.
