Recently, the inaugural security conference has taken
place in Delhi with the Commonwealth nations and their
security advisers. It is clear that good progress is being
made on that ground. Security will remain a priority as
security requirements constantly change with time," Fennell
said.

"A second international security conference will be held
in June 2010 to give CGF a chance to review the scenario.
Meanwhile, CGF's own security advisers will continue to
monitor the progress and advice us accordingly. Security will
continue to receive a high-priority.

"We are satisfied that the Government of India places
highest importance to the security of the country and really
high importance on the Games' security," Fennell said.

A second security conference with Commonwealth members
would be held in Delhi in June, next year to review the
progress, he said.

Fennell sought an overhaul of the procurement process and
was assured by OC chairman Suresh Kalmadi that the issue would
be taken care of.

"I also advised getting foreign experts in areas like
Games Village operation, press operations, transportation,
ticketing and accreditation.

"It is a big step forward and this should be maintained
without any hitch," Fennell said, looking at Kalmadi. More PTI
