West Africa Ebola Update

Westminster Group Plc ('Westminster' or the 'Group'), the AIM listed supplier of system solutions and products to the security, defence, fire protection and safety markets worldwide, wishes to announce that it has deployed advanced Fever Detection Screening Equipment to its airport operation in West Africa to help officials monitor passengers entering the airport and to prevent any infected person from travelling in accordance with World Health Organisation (WHO) requirements.

Westminster have today deployed a technical team to install and train officials on the use of Westminster's WG520 Flu Fever Screening Detection System which identifies persons who may be suffering from Ebola, common influenza, SARS and other flu variants such as Avian flu and Bird and Swine flu. A major advantage of the system over hand held devices being used in other airports is that it provides automatic screening and an alarm alerts officials to anyone entering the airport who may have fever symptoms.

Westminster has still not as yet seen any adverse impact on passenger traffic due to the Ebola outbreak and the first full week of August has seen traffic numbers 22.3% up on the same period last year and 8.9% year to date on the same period last year.
