Proceeding contribution from James Brokenshire (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on Fighting Crime (Public Engagement).


Fighting Crime (Public Engagement)

Does the Minister acknowledge that public confidence in crime prevention means that people need to be able to rely, not just on the police, but on those other agencies charged with keeping them safe? Does he accept that people's confidence will have been rocked by this afternoon's shocking news that the Security Industry Authority, which is responsible for vetting nightclub door staff and other security personnel, has not even carried out all the appropriate security checks on its own staff?
