Managing director Neil Jones said, "We support these moves which, as with door supervisors, will have the effect of turning the job of security guard into a better paid, more reliable, professional and respected occupation.

Conflict management is now taught as a core discipline in all relevant training courses.

"But security staff must have that all-important licence.

Apart from anything else, there could be heavy legal and insurance implications in the event of an incident involving an unlicensed person."
