PDL assesses the benefits and challenges surrounding the regulation and licensing of private investigators in the UK.

Speaking of his company’s acquisition of what is, at present, the most relevant licensing - An Information commissioner’s office (ICO) licence​, PDL’s lead investigation consultant Peter Torley said, “Our primary concerns are always success for our clients, without ever compromising on legality, ethics or discretion. We currently take our own in-house measures to ensure these exemplary standards are upheld, however would support a basic, generalised UK licensing that would ensure all working investigation operatives must meet these essential requirements.”

He continued, “Our Edinburgh team looks forward to working closely with those involved to ensure it meets all necessary standards, should regulation in Scotland begin. In the meantime, our London and Manchester offices will continue to uphold the standards on which, with great pride, our reputation has been built.”
