Default Earthing of armoured cable (SWA)

Hi
Whilst checking the wiring into my garage I noticed that the feed into the garage Consumer Unit is via 3 core armoured SWA cable. The outer galvanized steel armour terminates at the plastic outer case of the CU but is not connected to the earth. The earthling conductor is connected to the earth bar in the CU as it should be. Should the outer steel armour be earthed?
Thanks
