Visiting the Olympic
Park
Welcome
to Richard Morris and Paul Read in strengthening the Olympic security programme
in the Met. I am also pleased to confirm the permanent appointment of Chris
Jones as head of the Olympic Protect programme and Ben Fletcher as head of the
Olympic Engage programme. Both have been acting as interim heads in tandem with
their existing roles, and there will still be a period of parallel running for
them whilst successor arrangements are made. Interviews are still to be
completed for the posts as head of the other three programmes: Prepare; Identify and
Disrupt; and Command, Control, Plan and Resource.
