England happy with CWG security measures

Commonwealth Games England will write to all governing bodies of England giving assurances about security and making it clear there is no intention of pulling out of the event.

“We are writing to the sports with a synopsis of the security paper put to our board recently and that includes the ongoing security advice and the security that was present for the test events in Delhi last month,” a spokeswoman for Commonwealth Games England was quoted as saying by Press Association.

“The security at those events was first-class and this should be reassuring to all the sports. There has never been any suggestion by us that we would not send a team and we are definitely going.”
