CCTV in the spotlight
Speaking about her re-election, Pauline Norstrom explained: “I’m delighted to have been re-elected as chairman of the CCTV Section, particularly as CCTV continues to be very much in the spotlight. My aim is to continue to work closely with key Stakeholders such as the installers and end users of systems, and see the BSIA continuing to act as a strong advocate for Best Practice in all aspects of CCTV – from installation to operation – a position which I am pleased to say is now recognised internationally.”
Norstrom continued: “Moving forward, a key focus will also be to look at the impact of new developments from analytics to High Definition CCTV and, through the development of effective guidance, ensuring that the benefits of these technological advances can be maximised.”
