FOI release

Number of SIA licences revoked and suspended since 2004

Published 16 June 2023

1. Request

Since licensing was introduced in the UK security industry can you please provide the number of revoked and suspended licences by licence sector for each calendar year. If this is too long a period, can you please provide this information from years 2018 to 2023 (2023 being the most up to date information you have for this part year).

2. Response

I can confirm that the SIA does hold this information.

Attached are 2 spreadsheets detailing the number of revoked licences and number of suspended licences for as far as we can go back on our systems. This information is correct and up-to-date as of today (14 June 2023). Please note that revocations precede suspensions as suspending licenses was introduced as a licensing action later on.
