GLOBAL MSC SECURITY SEMINAR - 6th MARCH 2012, BRISTOL


We are delighted to announce the next Global MSC Security Seminar and Exhibition, in conjunction with Bristol City and South Gloucestershire Councils aimed at CCTV, Facility and Security Managers, on Tuesday 6th March 2012 on the subject of:

'CCTV Budget Cuts & the Riots - How Did We Adapt?'

With many organisations facing austerity measures, security provision is one of the areas that is being hit with budget cuts. The recent riots in the UK were a test to how effective the new streamlined security systems are. This seminar will address issues faced by security managers and polices authorities whilst implementing the changes. The Riots Communities and Victims Panel has published its interim report and the full report is due to be published in March 2012 coinciding with this Seminar. Additionally we will be looking at how CCTV has played a key part in identifying those responsible for the violence, theft and devastating damage to homes and businesses during the civil disturbances earlier this year. You may be aware that Deputy Chief Constable Graeme Gerrard, ACPO lead on CCTV, is planning to retire in April 2012. We are delighted to announce that Graeme has agreed to deliver the keynote speech at our March 2012 seminar where he will reflect on the riots as well as provide his thoughts on what has been achieved under his guidance in the field of CCTV and where this is expected to be taken to further the regulation . He will also be participating in the afternoon panel discussion. This will be a wonderful opportunity for CCTV Users to say their farewells and thanks to Graeme.

On the afternoon of 6th March, after lunch there will be a ‘Question Time’ style debate where the audience will be able to pose questions to the panel of industry experts on the subject of the on the recent UK riots, how CCTV played a part and the impact (if any) of the budget cuts. We would like to encourage delegates and manufacturers to participate in what is set to be a lively and beneficial debate.
