Just wodering if any other companies out there have security checking vehicles at the gate ??. .. .Not to get in - But to get out!!!!!!!!!!!. .. .Nice to see that NATS trusts terrorists not to attack our flagship building, but not us from nicking things from it.. .. . <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" />
I don`t think they are worried about stuff getting nicked,just checking to make sure no more ATSAs escape.

It's not unusally to have this sort of treatment where the Car Park is inside a "secure" area. . .. .Given the number of laptops that go missing the checks should actually be increased!

Let me see...... Who provides the robust security that we are all so confident in at NERC? Ahh yess GROUP 4 ..... .. .I rest my case m'lud.. .. .BEX.
A police officer has to have reasonable grounds to suspect you have something stolen with you....I wonder what grounds group 4 are using...if any??????

You have to park it outside and walk in.

As one of the escapees from the move to Nerc,i must say i am pleasantly slurprised by how the system seems to be working ...all the prophets of doom seem to have had the legs kicked out from under them...might get a job on the gate working for Group 4 ...i know what a laptop looks like ...Good Luck
Nice to see Group 4 have the time to track down all the villians at Nerc !!, but when it comes to providing assistance to a member of the public lying injured and unconcious in the street outside it's a case of "sorry mate i can't leave my post and my other colleauge on duty is asleep " <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" />

I don't suppose we should moan too much about the service Group 4 supplies at the gate, at least the ATSA's who want to escape now know the way to escape is to disguise themselves to look like a laptop.
