The Netherlands is on the eve of the largest sports event it has ever organized: the European Football Championship 2000 (Euro 2000). The threat of Euro 2000 inducing large-scale riots is a concern to government and security officials. Of particular concern is the potential for violent behavior by football hooligans or football criminals attracted to the event. The audit of the organization of Euro 2000 fits within the customary views of audits and auditing. It is not only geared to inspecting the current situation, but is primarily aimed at giving those involved the opportunity to compare their efforts with those of others. The audit framework has two parts; the first consists of the content audit. This consists of an inspection of the content of the measures taken by many organizations to prevent major disruptions to public order. Such measures pertain to enforcement; arrests and prosecution; supervision, transportation, and stay; and hospitality. The second part is the process audit, which is a review of the processes deployed by the organizations responsible for planning and executing Euro 2000. This phase of the audit focuses on preparation, organization, information, media and communication, and the after-phase. A summary of the results of the content audit encompasses 18 topics, and the summary of the process audit encompasses 22 topics. 13 references
