Legislation to restrict the right to a trial by jury in certain cases. New regulations aimed at cutting car crime . Measures aimed at cracking down on crime barons , including new powers to allow courts to order a seizure of assets even if a person has not been convicted of a criminal offence. The introduction of a Security Industry Authority to regulate private security companies and nightclub bouncers.
