London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

I am grateful to the noble Lord, but I took that somewhat as a given. We all know the times in which we live, and we have all seen the extensive security operation that we had to mount as the immediate consequence of 7 July, and how much work has had to be done, and is being done, to protect all our fellow citizens. That work requires extensive co-ordination between forces in authority but I do not think that the Government could be expected to state how those forces interrelate in a clause in the Bill. Clause 6 makes clear the recognised obligation on security that will need to be met. That is the assurance that I give the Committee.
