Checks at bars and clubs in Grimsby and Cleethorpes find 100 per cent compliance with licensing regulations 
(22/06/2009)
By law, all door staff must hold a frontline SIA licence and display this while working.
Recent checks at bars and clubs in Grimsby and Cleethorpes found 100 per cent compliance with licensing regulations. Investigators from the Security Industry Authority and officers from Humberside Police ran random compliance inspections at 15 bars and clubs. 47 door staff were checked and all held valid licences.
Nigel Davis, an SIA Head of Investigation said: “This exercise follows on from work carried out earlier this year testing compliance with SIA licensing regulations so I am pleased with the results.
“Grimsby and Cleethorpes attract a high number of holiday makers and weekend trippers so with the summer holidays approaching, we want to ensure that individuals working in positions of trust are doing so legally and hold SIA licences.”
Inspector Tom Shaw said: "We work in close partnership with local door staff as they are integral to a safe night time economy for our community. It is a credit to the hard work of sapphire Security and Protech Security."
