1 INTRODUCTION
1.01
This chapter includes retail premises which do not involve the
selling of actual goods to the public. They are generally charac-
terised by the need for greater security for staff and premises than
shops selling goods; either because of the attraction to the criminal
of the money, etc. held in quantity, or (as in the case of Jobcentre
Plus offices) because the customers may be sufficiently distressed
to attack the staff.
