PRINCIPAL TYPES OF COMMERCIAL SECURITY SERVICES CURRENTLY PROVIDED IN GREAT BRITAIN, AND COMMENTS ON THEIR POSSIBLE ENCROACHMENT ON POLICE ACTIVITIES.
Abstract
THE AUTHOR EXAMINES EXISTING AND PROJECTED FORMS OF CONTROL OF THE INDUSTRY AND ITS RECRUITING PRACTICES, AND COOPERATIVE PROGRAMS WITH POLICE REPRESENTATIVES. UNCERTAINTY OVER THE PUBLIC OR PRIVATE NATURE OF SUCH FEATURES OF MODERN URBAN DEVELOPMENT AS SHOPPING PRECINCTS, HIGH RISE APARTMENTS, AND INDUSTRIAL ESTATES, HAVE RAISED JURISDICTION PROBLEMS BETWEEN THE POLICE AND SECURITY GUARDS.
