Petards, the AIM quoted developer of advanced security systems, announces that
David Hayes has been appointed Chief Executive of the Company with effect from

sustained profitability in the future.

"David Hayes has brought valuable commercial experience to the Company and
particular expertise to the exploitation of its software capabilities. The Board
