Keynote Address
Brodie Clark CBE (confirmed)
Head of the UK Border Force, UK Border Agency
“Managing risk, national security and utilising technology”
The UK border security strategy seeks to maximise the depth and breadth of border protection. This requires shared responsibilities across all levels of government, private sector partnerships and civil society. By utilising technology, such as biometrics, for improved document control and making better use of data, such as the e-Borders programme, the strategy aims to intercept threats at an early stage.

“Managing risk and security – getting the balance right”
At a local level authorities are seeking to engage with communities to increase social cohesion, broaden understanding and help minimise the risk of violent extremism. How should communication data be managed, and is it important that local authorities have ease of access? Is there enough funding and staffing levels to make the community engagement, removal and enforcement processes work effectively?
A live Twitter feed will be displayed during the panel session, allowing delegates to share their questions, thoughts and comments. Please include the following hash tag when tweeting about the conference: #PSCT11
