The correct answer is: It entailed the making of the Private Security and Investigate Act, 2005 (Bill 159)

The Shand Inquest was a significant event that led to significant shifts in the security industry in Ontario, Canada. The inquest was named after Patrick Shand, who died in an altercation with a security guard. The inquest led to many recommendations to enhance the security guard industry, one of which was the creation of a new law: the Private Security and Investigative Services Act, 2005 (also known as Bill 159). This Act was designed to tighten the regulation of private security and investigative services in Ontario. Notably, it created a licensing requirement for security guards and private investigators, thereby increasing the professionalism and accountability of these roles. Therefore, the statement that the Shand Inquest entailed the making of the Private Security and Investigate Act, 2005 (Bill 159) is correct.
