The Assembly is looking for someone with a bit of security expertise who can provide it with 4 X-ray baggage scanners, 4 metal detecting archways and 8 handheld scanners. It's all to do with the hole in the ground, previously noted here, which is set to become an external search area. Since General De Chastelain's IICD team don't look as if they will be busy anytime soon decommissioning UDA weapons, maybe they could provide Stormont with a quote.

nothing to report in assembly committees then mark - try if you can manage it , reporting the news instead of surfing the assembly's website. x
Hope this doesn't get me into trouble, but one time I was doing multi-drop deliveries to building contractors.
I had to deliver some stuff to tradesmen working in the Stormont Estate. I was told by the man at the gate to go to the x-ray man and get the boxes x-rayed and a sticker put on them to say I had been through security.
I got directions, but my sense of direction is poor to say the least, and Stormont is a big place.
I found the contractors I was delivering to, gave them their parcels and got the required signature. I really did try to find the x-ray man, but gave up before I got questioned as to why I was charging about the place aimlessly in an unknown vehicle. That would have really put me behind schedule.
So unlike Michael Stone, I breached Stormont security and (until now) got away with it.
Anyway, it was only wires and switches and stuff for electricians. You can't make bombs out of that, sure you can't?
