The NT government is being urged to reinstate late-night security patrols in Darwin CBD, as businesses report an increase in the frequency of violence and anti-social behaviour.

Territory Protective Services (TPS) has been providing private security patrols in Darwin City since 2019, but in June the NT government slashed their patrol hours after a funding change.

The service now stops at 8pm on weeknights.

Patrols now finish at 7pm on Saturdays while, on Sundays, shifts run just four hours — from 10am to 2pm.
