  • Tickets (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Clearly everybody is obsessed by tickets at the moment, for getting them or not getting them. I understand that a significant number of websites have been taken down that are offering bogus - whatever one likes to call it - tickets. Is there any particular warning that you would like to reiterate to the public of the UK about buying bogus tickets and how to avoid that problem, especially for the 100 metres final?
  • Business Plan (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Before the bid, during the bid and after the bid successive Mayors declared that this would be the most accessible, inclusive Games ever. Clearly you would have incorporated that statement within your business plan. Can you tell me how far you have gone to fulfilling that?
  • London 2012 Food Vision (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Lord Coe, lest the British public think that the only option they have is a Veggie Burger or a Big Mac, can you please assure both this Assembly and London, the wider public, that your food policy has achieved an enormous range of food outlets across the Park, that McDonald's have only two outlets, I understand, at the Park, and there are another 150 others? McDonald's, whilst having the monopoly of chips, as I understand, do not have the monopoly of food provision.

  • Potential for Further Budget Increases (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 25 April 2007
    So, at this moment, the total budgeting costs for security are approximately £1.4 billion then, if one conflates the two figures?
  • Potential for Further Budget Increases (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 25 April 2007
    Yes, but on top of that is the £600 million for the Metropolitan Police?
  • 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...
