    For a noncompact, locally compact, connected, complete metric space \(M\), let \(\widehat\Gamma\) denote the configuration space with multiple points on \(M\) and let \(\Gamma\) denote the subset of simple configurations. Then the weak topology on \(\widehat\Gamma\) and the subspace topology on \(\Gamma\) are both separable and are both generated by complete metrics. Characterisations of precompact subsets of each space are given.
