The Ministry of Home Affairs is to propose a licensing system for bouncers, the minister Carm Mifsud Bonnici, has announced.
He said in reply to a parliamentary question that full-time and part-time bouncers currently only need to have the licence of a private security guard.
There were two cases this year where bouncers were taken to court. One was accused of having caused grievous injury leading to death while the second was accused of causing serious injury.
