When:
Short story:
Feargal Sharkey, CEO of music industry representative body U.K. Music, has written to Metropolitan Police commissioner Sir Ian Blair expressing concerns about personal details being demanded by Form 696, part of the risk assessment procedure for live events in London, England, UK, Europe. One major concern highlighted in Sharkey's latter is that "In explicitly singling out performances and musical styles favored by the black community: garage and R'n'B, and MCs and DJs, we believe the use of risk assessment Form 696 is disproportionate, unacceptable and damaging to live music in the U.K."
