PUBLIC INTEREST REQUIREMENTS FOR PRIVATE SECURITY

Dejavnost zasebnega varovanja se v Republiki Sloveniji intenzivno razvija zadnji dve desetletji. Pred enim letom je bil sprejet nov Zakon o zasebnem varovanju (ZzasV-1), ki po novem opredeljuje tudi javni interes ali boljše določa, da se področje zasebnega varovanja, kot dejavnosti ureja v javnem interesu zaradi zaščite javnega reda, varnosti ter varnosti naročnikov, tretjih oseb in varnostnega osebja. Besedna zveza »javni interes« je pogosto uporabljena, v redkih primerih pa jasno definirana ali opisana. Z namenom širšega pogleda na pomen »javnega interesa« so bili pridobljeni različni pravni akti ter strokovni članki, ki so bili analizirani in med seboj primerjani. Dejansko je javni interes v redkih primerih jasno opredeljen. Zasebna varnost je opredeljena kot partner pri zagotavljanju manjšega dela notranje varnosti v Republiki Sloveniji, vzporedno z državnimi subjekti. Poglavje naloge o zasebni varnosti je namenjeno prikazu enega dela varnostnih mehanizmov v Republiki Sloveniji, pri tem pa opravljena pa je tudi primerjava med temi varnostnimi mehanizmi. Posebej je opredeljena dejavnost zasebnega varovanja, področja delovanja ter odnosov med zasebnimi in državnimi mehanizmi zagotavljanja varnosti. Zaključki na temo javnega interesa v zasebnem varovanju so predstavljeni preko zastavljenih tez. Ne glede na to, da je področje urejeno skladno z javnim interesom, pa se na nekaterih manjših segmentih lahko pojavijo dileme in vprašanja, ki bi bila lahko tema kakšne naloge raziskovalne narave.The area of private security has been intensively developing in the Republic of Slovenia for the last two decades. A year ago, the new Law on private security service was passed (Zzas V-1) which defines public interest and is more specific about determining that the field of private security as an activity is being managed in public interest due to the protection of the public policy, security and security of contracting authorities, third parties and security officials. The term “public interest” is often used but rarely clearly defined and described. With the purpose of wider perception of this term, various legal acts and specialist articles were collected, analyzed and compared. It is a fact that there are rare cases where the term is clearly defined. Private security is defined as a partner in assuring a small part of the internal security in the Republic of Slovenia, parallel with national entities. The chapter on private security is intended to review one part of the security mechanisms in the Republic of Slovenia. Further the comparison between these security mechanisms is made. Separately the activity of private security is defined as well as the field of activity and the relationships between private and state mechanisms that are assuring the security. Conclusions on public interest in private security are based on the set thesis. Despite the fact that the area is organized in accordance with public interest, there are some parts where issues and questions might arise that could be discussed in a research study
