The Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) has launched its security systems policy.
The policy, ACPO 2000, means that alarms now have to be confirmed before police will respond. Police are also charging end users for unique reference numbers for alarms.
EMC sister title Security installer is organising a series of forums in partnership with BT RedCARE to help with the policy's understanding and implementation. For more details e-mail: adrian_ newton@buildergroup.co.uk or fax him on 020 7560 4016.
