Not a garage but a current WOF and registration on the vehicle being used.

The requirement for having security at your own place of residence instead of at an alternative FAL holder's place is based on the experience that some FAL holders won't or haven't got around to returning the firearm after using it to the alternative security. They go to work or away for a day or more and their place is burgled and the unsecured firearm is stolen. Similar thing happened to an acquaintance of mine who subsequently had his licence revoked for five years. Most people are honest and the average firearms licence holder would be more honest and law abiding than the majority of society from what I've seen. Unfortunately though, there are always those few who that let the rest of the law abiding FAL holder's down.
