  • Catering at Games' Venues (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    Will your Food Strategy apply to all of the Olympic venues? I mean not just those within the Park but Weybridge, Broxbourne, Dorney Wood, Manchester United's football ground. Will it apply to all of them, even those commercial premises which you are hiring in for the period of the Games?

  • Risks (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    Thank you. One of your reputational risks hangs on the slogan that was used throughout the bidding process, after we got it and until today, which is 'The most accessible Games ever'. It is delivering the most accessible Games ever which you will be judged by, in many ways. Now it is relatively easy to deliver accessible Games within six stadia, however there are a number of - what I believe is called - free to view events; pentathlons, long distance walking, marathons, for those who are not aware. How are you going to ensure that the mobility impaired and...

  • Potential for Further Budget Increases (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 25 April 2007
    We appreciate that, but it is all public money for security?

  • Potential for Further Budget Increases (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 25 April 2007
    Since the award of the Games, international events have clearly impacted upon a significant element of the budget which is the security aspect of it. Most of us have concentrated on the issue of the security for the period of the Games itself, to ensure that London, the athletes and the Games are safe. However, we now have already entered into the build phase. I was intimately involved in the building of T5 (Terminal 5) and I recognise the security that was involved in protecting that site. What steps have you taken to protect the site down at the Olympic...

    It is the building site and building materials which clearly are the major concern.

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 25 April 2007
    Rather than the people sitting in Canary Wharf. To what extent is the Metropolitan Police Service involved in this? Is it providing physical security or is it a private contractor working wholly for the ODA?
