Victorian Law Reform Commission (VLRC) recommends modernising surveillance laws

The Victorian Attorney-General tabled the Law Reform Commission's Surveillance in Public Places – Final Report in Parliament on the 12th August 2010.
The report responds to the growing use and sophistication of surveillance technologies. It provides 33 recommendations to modernise surveillance laws and promote the responsible use of surveillance devices in public places. The report completes a two-stage inquiry into the widespread use of privacy-invasive technologies.

Planing and Management of Security for Small Business

During tough economic times, many small businesses can be found guilty of neglecting investment in their on-going security protection. Naturally, this can prove to be problematic as the impact of break-ins and criminal activity greatly affect the accounts and day-to-day running of the business.

Businesses are often prompted to consider their security requirements based on the minimum standards required by their insurer rather than reviewing the problems and threats faced. These days, with technology and usage improvements, security systems can add value to the day-to-day running of a small business and offer cost effective solutions to ongoing problems of crime and vandalism.
