Similarly, any person or company that employs an unlicensed CCTV or Access Control contractor will also be breaking the law and subject to prosecution. A person includes householders and businesses.

    In order to obtain a licence from the PSA, a company must prove compliance with national and European standards, be tax compliant and undergo criminal record checking.
