An explanation for you on the commercial liability aspect with local councils and governments.
I think I am 100% correct, Michael.
The Newtown, Geelong, break-ins, as reported in the Geelong Advertiser:

A quote from the article-and there were quite a few of them:

NEWTOWN residents have banded together to fight the growing crime rate in their suburb by installing thousands of dollars’ worth of security equipment.
Locals say they’re fed-up with the constant break-ins plaguing their “once quiet” suburb and are now calling for a community meeting with police to discuss what can be done.
Concerned resident Thane Joske said while residents were obviously disappointed the break-ins had escalated over the past month, a few positives had come out of it.
“It’s united our community,” she said.
“We’ve got a neighbourhood text messaging and bush telegraph system in place so now we can keep each other informed.”
Last week the Geelong Advertiser reported that businesses on Pakington St were banding together in the wake of spate of burglaries."

And once again, to reiterate, the local councils gig:
