SECURITY INDUSTRY AMENDMENT REGULATION 2005 (No
1)
The Security Industry Act 2003 replaced various Security Codes of
Practice under the Fair Trading Act 1992. The Security Industry Act
2003 prescribes training requirements and includes a public interest test to
applicants.
Casino Canberra submitted that their security staff were
subject to regulation by the Casino Control Act 1988 and the Gambling
and Racing Control Act 1999. The requirements of the Security Industry
Act 2003 provide an extra layer of regulation. The public interest is
sufficiently protected by the two earlier Acts.
The amendment exempts
Casino security employees from the requirements of the Security Industry Act
2003.
Regulations 1 & 2 are formal requirements of all regulations, specifying
the title of the Regulation and commencement date.
This Regulation provides that the Regulation amends the Security Industry Regulation 2003.
