Door security staff complained about not receiving forms
|
Doormen and bouncers in the South West are being given a three-week extension to comply with new legislation requiring them to hold a licence.
The extension only applies to this region because not all doormen were sent their applications on time.
Across the UK it will be illegal to operate as a bouncer or a door supervisor without a proper licence from 23 August.
But in the South West the deadline has been extended to 13 September.
The region's doormen will then have to hold a supervisor licence to be legal.
Getting one will require an identity and criminal background check
It will also mean having to meet requirements for training and professional standards.
