  • 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.
  • Security During Games Time

    • Reference: 2008/0014-1
    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2008
    Would you give us a brief update on your discussion with authorities concerned with security during Games time?
  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    Actually `dormant' I understand means that a company is not trading and that is not the same definition which you have just used. Not trading means you are not trading.
  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    OK, can I ask the question another way then? Would you give a grant to a company which is effectively not trading because it has got no business of any size? Would you give it to such an organisation which could hardly be called a company?
  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    Well, I am talking about a grant the LDA makes to strange organisations.
  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    Are you confident that procedures are in place to ensure that once funding has been granted, it is actually applied appropriately and is monitored, so that money is applied in accordance with the LDA grant process, or the conditions of the grant?
  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    No, I am asking about the procedures to ensure that your accounting procedures, your checking procedures, are right.
  • LDA Project Funding (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    As you are aware, I have been looking at the grant procedures of the LDA for some months and I have certainly identified about 20 companies that are dormant that you have given money to. I will not read out the list now, but I can certainly supply that to you.
