|
Section 79A of the Western Australian Security and Related Activities (Control) Act 1996, relates to the employment of certain unlicensed persons in a security agents business. The WA Licensing Enforcement Division have indicated that the section will be firmly applied. This will mean that a person who is unlicensed and where a person has had the issue of a licence or renewal of a licence refused or whose licence is suspended or revoked is not to be employed in any capacity in the agents business.
The employment of such persons in any capacity in the business will place the agent in breach of the Act.
