Proceeding contribution from Baroness Smith of Malvern (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 November 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Security Industry Authority.
Security Industry Authority
The right hon. Gentleman is just plain wrong. As I spelled out to the hon. Member for Taunton a few moments ago, there has not been any failure of the processes during the course of this activity. There has been a tightening of the requirement to put alongside an application for an SIA licence a check for a right to work. That is not a statutory obligation: it is an additional operational safeguard put in by the Government and jointly adopted by the SIA and the BIA. It is an improvement of the position, not a blunder or a failure.
