Magenta Security MD Abbey Petkar met with SIA Chief Executive Ian Todd and Tony Holyland (SIA Head of Quality & Standards) at Magenta HQ last month to discuss concerns about the lack of business licences in the security industry.  They also considered other topics focused on making the security industry more professional and more robust in the face of unscrupulous players in the market.  This included how the ACS could be made more available to the 80% of the industry, which represents approximately 40% of licence holders, yet to join the voluntary scheme.
