OLYMPIC SECURITY COORDINATOR TO SPEAK AT ISNR LONDON

Hosting the 2012 Olympic Games will present the UK with one of the greatest security challenges it has faced in peacetime. The police and other emergency services, together with the intelligence services, will be in the front line, but the Olympic effect will be felt in many other areas connected with security. 

Tarique Ghaffur, Metropolitan Police Assistant Commissioner and Olympic Security Coordinator, will be using ISNR London, the international security and national resilience exhibition and conference to be staged at Olympia on 2 and 3 December, to explain what is involved in simultaneously protecting the competitors, visitors, infrastructure, host city and ethos of the Games.

The challenges and opportunities associated with the 2012 Olympics are new ground for the UK security industry and Assistant Commissioner Ghaffur will be describing the strategies that are being employed in key areas such as staffing, partnership and procurement. He will also talk about building a legacy of security at the 2012 Games.

The ISNR London exhibition showcases the complete range of total solutions from fully integrated security management systems through to perimeter protection and physical security products. The co-located conference is divided into three streams: Protecting the Critical Natural Infrastructure, People and Communities and Crisis Response. Speakers include Bruce Mann, Director, Civil Contingencies Secretariat; Shami Chakrabarti, Director, Liberty; Brian Coleman, Chairman, London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority: and Brett Lovegrove, recently retired Head of Counter-Terrorism, City of London Police.

Hosting the Olympics has thrown London into the security spotlight and ISNR London is responding with the launch of an initiative that will address all aspects of the security challenges facing London’s businesses and the infrastructure of the capital itself. Mounted with the support of the London Chamber of Commerce & Industry (LCCI), ‘The Secure London Initiative’ will provide a forum for security professionals across all business sectors to learn, both from their peers and representatives of leading security agencies, how London’s commercial enterprises are planning to ensure the security of their people, businesses and assets.
