Staff of the Borough Security Department were sworn in as constables from 1979, though the title "Brent Parks Constabulary" was adopted around 1993.[1] In 1993, the constabulary consisted of 17 constables and 2 supervisors.[1] They did not receive any formal police training, which "caused some concern" in the Metropolitan Police.[1]
