Video surveillance to cover entire Beijing China will build a video surveillance network to cover the entire capital to ensure security, a newspaper reported on Friday, with some government departments to be given 'unfettered access' to video footage. Beijing, host of the 2008 Summer Olympics and currently equipped with 263,000 surveillance cameras, will install more in public areas by the end of next year and issue new regulations for the storage and sharing of video footage, the Beijing Youth Daily said. "There are parts of the city vulnerable to security and crime that have problems in that they don't have cameras or don't share footage," the paper said. By the end of 2006, exits and entrances to Beijing's "key areas", subway stations and major venues will be fitted with cameras equipped with facial recognition technology.
