The article discusses the survey conducted by Australian Institute of Criminology regarding the changing status of police and private securities in Australia, and canvasses some of the problems associated with this complex issue. It reveals that police officers are concerned with the gradual growth of private activity into what they believe to be a police preserve, which is compounded by the fact that police practitioners tend to see private security operatives generally as possessing low status and lacking moral authority. It also notes that the principal key to change attitudes among the two communities will be the gradual realization among police officers of the functional basis of occupation, rather than organizational affiliation. |
