No idea about a lodger but I can imagine its another check on him and if unsuitable to be in close proximity to firearms ...........!!!
Why!?
Are you going to background check everyone who comes through the door?
my meter gets read and the guy who does it is within 6 ft of two cabinets.
Should I ask for him to complete a background check?
Assuming your security is up to snuff then there is no issue
don't start looking for reasons for the Police to need more checks!
In my opinion, I'd be asking my local licence depth. What they want you to do as they are the ones who can revoke your license, if you don't want to let them in on things then maybe basc or the like. I wouldn't be risking my license by taking advice from a forum ''no disrespect to folk but my license is precious to me so I'd want info from the people who know 100%''
I am certainly not advocating even more checks but anyone living in your house (family) is checked, are they not? Why not a lodger, by the police ?

It isnt beyond the bounds of probablity given previous experience (Durham) so why not prepare ? The FEO I had initially advised me that boys aged 8/9 tend to get inquisitive about guns and they may be tempted if they know where your keys might be found. Catch - all maybe but worth the thought. Tends to suggest the level of potential concern about others in close proximity.
Other people are checked at least within my area of police scotland. I laws moved in for a while and I was asked to provide full names and dates of birth for both to allow them to be checked
Really? Where does it say that? (Not saying you're wrong, just that I've never heard that before)Because I told them as it is a change in circumstances. You are obliged to inform the police
