Chair's comments
Committee Chair Rt Hon Keith Vaz MP said:
"The Committee intends to conclude its inquiry into Olympic Security by the end of September. Sir Denis O’Connor was commissioned by the Home Office to produce a report on this issue last year.
We will also hear from the new Deputy Mayor for London.
The Committee will also hear from the Home Secretary, the Permanent Secretary, Nick Buckles, Paul Deighton, Charles Farr, Commissioner Hogan-Howe and Assistant Commissioner Chris Allison so that we can establish the facts as to why G4S was unable to deliver on their contract and how this situation was allowed to develop.”
