SIA Stakeholder Engagement Strategy
Strategy launched by Baroness Ruth Henig at SIA conference
At the "SIA: the Changing Agenda" Conference at the University of Leicester, Security Industry Authority (SIA) Chairman Baroness Ruth Henig launched the publication of the SIA Stakeholder Engagement Strategy.
Speaking to the audience of security providers, purchasers, SIA partners and
stakeholders, Ruth Henig said:
"The purpose of this conference is to evaluate what the SIA has achieved through
introducing licensing and regulation of the private security industry and to look at
the changing agenda and priorities for the future.
"A lot has been achieved in a short time and there have been many successes and
some challenges. The priorities outlined in our Corporate and Business plan for
2007-08, together with our Stakeholder Engagement Strategy, which I am pleased
to launch today, will point the direction in which we believe we need to travel in the
next three or four years. But our journey has to be a collaborative one and it has to
be travelled in step with the private security industry and alongside our stakeholders
and partners.
"We need to become, and be recognised as, not only a first class regulator, but a
valued and respected strategic partner - to government and its agencies, to the
industry and its representative bodies, to training organisations, the police and
other pubic sector bodies."
