Westminster Group Plc:
Westminster Franchise - Nigeria
Westminster Group Plc ('Westminster', the 'Group' or the 'Company'), the AIM listed supplier of managed services and technology based security solutions to governments and government agencies, non-governmental organisations (NGO's) and blue chip commercial organisations worldwide has become aware of speculation regarding its Nigerian Franchise operation, Westminster Security Solutions Nigeria Ltd ("WSSN").
WSSN are currently advertising for security personnel for posting in various states in Nigeria however Westminster was not aware of any contracts having been awarded to WSSN and upon making enquiries to clarify the nature and timing of any such contracts have been advised that as part of the recommendations of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), a para-military agency of the Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria responsible for the issuance of Private Guard Company (PGC) Licence, before security guards can be employed PGCs are expected to:
-- submit detailed personal history of persons aspiring to be recruited as security guards;
-- obtain court endorsement of the declared history; -- obtain guarantors' statement and -- train such persons in conjunction with the NSCDC.
This can be a time consuming process and can amount to administrative bottleneck in the case where guards are required to be deployed to clients' facilities at short notice.
As a result, WSSN have decided to reserve a pool of persons who will have satisfied the above requirements ready for possible deployment. The advert was therefore a proactive step on behalf of WSSN in readiness for potential private guarding contracts it is pursuing. Any equipment or training and related services required for such potential contracts would, under the terms of the franchise agreement with WSSN, be supplied through Westminster.
This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.
