A tug of war is looming in the private security sector with the scheduled publication of all licensed companies by the end of July.
The government, through the Private Security Regulatory Authority (PRSA), in December 2019 announced plans to undertake fresh vetting and licensing of all private security providers.
The companies, however, protested and petitioned various arms of government including Parliament where they managed to put the vetting on hold.
But in a confidential memo, PSRA Chief Executive Fazul Mohamed has now directed all heads of departments and the vetting committee to submit “any and all pending vetting reports” to his office for compilation.
