Title: Policing the G20 Protests: Report, together with formal minutes, oral and written evidence

Summary: The policing of the G20 Protests was a very successful operation; more than 35,000 protesters demonstrated in the center of London with a police presence of several thousand, yet there was a minimum of disruption to the city. Aside from a few high-profile incidents, the policing of the G20 Protests passed without drama. However, these high-profile incidents and the tactics that led to them caused considerable adverse comment and have the potential to seriously damage the public's faith in the police. In addition, it was noted that while the vast majority of officers on duty performed very well, there is concern that untrained and inexperienced officers were placed in such a highly combustible atmosphere.
