Gary Morrison: Security Association CEO on the potential loosening of the citizen's arrest laws

The Security Association is weighing in on speculation citizen's arrest and security guard powers are about to open up. 

The Government is making an announcement this afternoon on its response to a ministerial advisory group's recommendations on retail crime. 

Association CEO Gary Morrison says they've been advocating for additional security powers with training, which wouldn't apply to all guards.  

Morrison says situational awareness is crucial - and the general public people would have to be very careful and know their own capabilities.
