Last Tuesday outgoing HM Chief Inspector of Constabulary Denis O'Connor gave evidence to the Home Affairs Committee on the subject of Olympics security. The Home Office last year commissioned Sir Denis to produce a report on this matter. Committee chairman Keith Vaz MP said: "The Committee intends to conclude its inquiry into Olympic Security by the end of September." It has been arranged so that any criminal cases directly connected with London 2012 were especially fast-tracked in the courts.
