  • Progress Update (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    What steps are going to be taken, and who is going to be taking the lead, in getting a real buy-in from the private sector? Ultimately we have got quite a lot of people from the public sector, distinguished people on the Board, but it is the private sector that ultimately will deliver this.

    Thank you; that is helpful. You highlight the importance of the project delivery there. Which of the members of your Board will be taking responsibility, apart from yourself, for project management issues?

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    I am grateful to hear that, that is reassuring. I wonder if you had had the chance to read the report that David James did on the delivery of the Dome?

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    You have told us that you are not going to exist, you think, immediately after the Games. You think it is going to wind up, so that freehold which you have will be transferred to whom?

    Well I had always known that John Biggs was a big cheese of the local community, it is quite clear he sees himself as the Big Mac of the local community. This question, Mr Higgins, I am raising because you described to my colleague Bob Neill the crossovers between yourselves, LOCOG, and the LDA. I am really concerned that the crossovers should always be crossovers, rather than areas of conflict. I am particularly interested in the relationship between yourselves and the LDA, particularly as you have already told us this morning that they are responsible for the land assembly as...

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    Can I welcome you, Mr Higgins, both from myself and my colleagues in the Conservative Group. The ODA has been described as the people who build the stage and the London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games (LOCOG) puts on the show. I just wonder if you can help me a little more in terms of what overlap you envisage in terms of operational work, of any kind, or budgets?
  • Progress Update (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    I see. Finally, on the question of ownership and existence after the Games have finished, as far as you are concerned, the ODA will have no say in legacy at all?
  • Progress Update (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    So as far as you are concerned, there is no duplication? The ODA does not acquire land; that is solely the responsibility of the LDA?
  • Progress Update (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    Again, I think a number of us here will find that very reassuring too. May I finally ask a more parochial question? I was grateful to see your comments about community engagement. I represent a constituency in south London, which includes Crystal Palace, which is not going to be one of the principle sites. I wonder what steps you are going to be taking to deal with those parts of London which, on the face of it, may not be receiving a direct benefit in terms of legacy but who will be contributing through their council tax, to try and...

    Could you provide an overview of the Olympic Delivery Authority and what you have achieved so far?
