1. Request
I have been trying to find out if the person with [REDACTED NAME] and [REDACTED DATE OF BIRTH] is an active front line close protection officer. Every time I put in their details in any capacity e.g. a security guard, it comes up as NO RECORD FOUND.
2. Response
All current licence holders appear on our register of licence holders (ROLH). If by searching by name and date of birth the register delivers no results, this is a clear indication that the individual in question does not hold a current SIA licence. Any current licence holder with those details would be shown.
I have repeated the search on our register and can confirm that no individual with that name and date of birth appears on our register.
