SAFE NEWCASTLE & GLOBAL MSC SECURITY SEMINAR
16th NOVEMBER 2010, NEWCASTLE

We are delighted to announce the next Global MSC Security Seminar and Exhibition being held in conjunction with Safe Newcastle and Government Office for the North East aimed at public space CCTV and Security Managers entitled,

“CCTV - Its Public Perception and How We Can Improve It”

Despite significant capital and revenue investment, CCTV receives its fair share of negative press and is not always seen in as positive a light as we would like with many articles and ‘research’ being published with inaccurate figures of cameras in use and the number of times individuals are viewed by camera during the course of a journey. We are aware that Local Authorities struggle to improve the public’s perception of CCTV and users and managers need to find alternative ways to convey to the public the many positives of what CCTV does and can do for many people but is unreported. This seminar will deal with how the public perceive CCTV and how we can improve its image by sharing success stories of how CCTV is assisting tackling crime and other security and street management aspects. Speakers confirmed so far include:

After lunch there will be a ‘Question Time’ style debate where the audience will be able to pose questions to the panel who will include representatives from ACPO, the NPIA the PCMA and other industry experts as well as Big Brother Watch. We would like to encourage delegates and manufacturers to participate in what is set to be a lively and beneficial debate on the perception of CCTV.
