An update from Pete E., interim Director of Inspections and Enforcement at the Security Industry Authority. Pete leads the drive against training malpractice.
We will not hesitate to act if we believe that an operative has not been trained to the standards we require as a result of training malpractice or qualification fraud.
In the last 24 hours we have suspended the SIA licences of more than 60 people who undertook training at two separate centres in Glasgow and Manchester that were operated by the same company. This came as a result of information provided to us.
We are continuing our enquiries. In the meantime, the responsible awarding organisation has prevented the centre from delivering any further training.
We will continue our work under Operation RESOLUTE, acting swiftly and decisively to root out abuse, detect and disrupt criminality, and make the private security industry a hostile environment for those who seek to exploit it.
We will provide updates on our progress as appropriate.
