It led to the unemployment of caretakers, doormen and cleaners.
However, there are rogue night-club owners as well as rogue doormen.
It should then be an offence for a nightclub owner to hire a doorman who did not possess an approved licence.
I especially welcome the provisions that deal with the licensing of doormen and provide for the banning of those with inappropriate criminal convictions.
I was concerned to read, for example, about a man who was working as a doorman.
I understand that there are pilot projects under way, but it may be necessary to contemplate a national register of nightclub doormen.
A key problem may be the fact that there is no unitary body responsible for overseeing the appointment of nightclub doormen.
A strategy for regulating doormen should be formally established and properly implemented.
