The appointed supplier will be responsible for re-deploying the dogs / finding them suitable homes after February 2016. 1.4 Canines should be trained to screen both static and moving people and should not make physical contact with them. 1.5 Canines should be trained to screen or scan all areas of a person, but of particular interest is validating the ability of canines to detect target hides located on the upper body of “suspect” people. 1.6 Results of this project will be used to inform protocols for the certification, quality assurance and operational deployment of a people screening capability in an aviation environment.
