It’s on desks; the February 2007 print issue of Professional Security magazine. There’s an Olympic ring to this month’s.
The cover interview is with Peter Ryan, the former British (Norfolk) chief constable who went to New South Wales as their police chief and among other things was in charge of policing the Sydney 2000 summer games. What then, now he is back in the UK, at engineering consultancy Hyder Consulting, does he have to tell UK private security about securing the unique event that will be London 2012? <br><br>Plus various manned guarding cases studies and news, from The Gherkin – 30 St Mary Axe in the City of London – to Manchester, London and northern public transport contract guarding. And the news that has cropped up on this site over the last few weeks, such as the Security Industry Authority licence fee price rise, and the latest list of SIA approved contractors. Pages on CCTV, access control and training, and, ahead of the fifth IIPSEC exhibition, a case study of how a high street retailer has gone over to IP intruder alarm monitoring, and why. <br><br>Una Riley talks to John Purnell, the Master of the Company of Security Professionals, who has retired from Tesco.
