  • Reference: 2023/0646
  • Question by: Caroline Russell
  • Meeting date: 23 February 2023

The young people involved are understandably concerned about how they came to the attention of the security teams at the event. Could you explain how the campaigners were identified, and do you share my concerns that this kind of invasive security looks repressive and secretive?
