Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 50 of the Bill be amended— (a) in Sub-clause (3)(a) by inserting the words “and tools” immediately after the words “types of equipment”; (b) in Sub-clause (2) by inserting the words “and private security providers” immediately after the word “Authority”.

What I am introducing under Sub-clause (2) is that while these regulations are being enacted or proposed, the private security providers must be involved. This is very crucial. We are talking about tools of work; the type of equipment or tools to be used. It would be very prudent that the private security providers be part and parcel of this process of regulation-making.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I want to withdraw this amendment because I have realised that what I wanted to propose is covered. Since it says “not exceeding five hundred thousand”, it takes care of even the small security firms. I was interested more on the small security firms, but I can see that they are covered.

Therefore, I withdraw my proposed amendment.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 59 of the Bill be amended in Sub-clause (3) by inserting at the end of the sub-clause the words “and to organise training workshops or seminars for private security providers.”

The import of this proposed amendment is that, I want this Fund to be used for the training of security officers. You remember earlier on, under Clause 26, we said they be trained for, at least, a week. This Fund should be used for that purpose apart from other uses. So, I am introducing the aspect of training private security officers on an annual basis. Thank you.

26 Apr 2016 in National Assembly:
The import of this is that we want all these information to be available to the public. That is why I have indicated that, at least, the information should be printed in two daily newspapers of national circulation for the general information of the public.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 68 of the Bill be amended in Sub-clause (2) by— (a) inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (d)— “(da) the provision of protective gear and tools;” (b) inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (e)— “(f) membership of private security service providers to corporate bodies.”

I am including a new subsection which includes provision of protective gear and tools. So, as they are making the regulations this should be one of the areas where regulations should be enacted so that it is very clear which protective gear and tools we are talking about. I am also including that the member of private security providers should also be seconded or be member of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
