Security industry welcomes today's Home Office statement on SIA

The British Security Industry Association has welcomed the statement by Home Office Minister Alan Campbell MP in the aftermath of an independent delivery review of the Security Industry Authority.

BSIA Chief Executive, David Dickinson, comments: "I welcome the statement by Alan Campbell MP and fully support the action which the Home Office and the SIA Board are taking in the aftermath of the delivery review which was recently undertaken. I also welcome the decision to appoint immediately an interim Chief Executive, following next week's departure of Mike Wilson as SIA Chief Executive. The BSIA will work in a strongly cooperative and supportive way with the new Chief Executive and the team in the future."

"Whilst clearly there have been problems at the SIA, these in no way detract from our belief that regulation has been, and will continue to be, of fundamental importance to the ongoing improvement of standards in the industry and the continuous enhancement of the skills and competencies of our workforce. BSIA members have been at the forefront of such progress over many years and are committed to a process of continued improvement for the years to come."
