The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has removed all government security screeners from LaGuardia International Airport in New York from the hours of 11:30 p.m. to 4 a.m. daily, according to a report by New York Newsday.
The change was prompted by TSA cost-cutting measures.
The non-government screening force will consist of guards hired by the airlines. A TSA spokesperson said the guards won't have to perform screening and will work only after the final outbound flight has left LaGuardia each day.

Access Control and Security Systems magazine is a business-to-business publication that focuses on how America's commercial, industrial and institutional facilities employ security systems to make their sites safer. Our readers -- more than 39,000 of them -- come mostly from larger companies (Fortune 1000-size) and are the high-level personnel in charge of security at their companies or institutions. We focus on the equipment used in security systems, and especially on how that equipment is integrated into "security solutions."
