  • Outer London Boroughs (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    Thank you, Mayor. One council leader that I have recently spoken to was very keen to see the refurbishment of much of the leisure facilities in their local authority. I am just wondering if, on the back of the Olympics, you can see a vehicle for this occurring. In some ways, if there is an upgrading of facilities, it would be quite astonishing if at one end of town we have elite sports facilities, and at the other we still have grotty facilities, which most residents have to live with.
  • Funding (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    I just wanted to delve into the funding arrangements with the IOC and television revenues. It is clear to me, after Beijing we will probably see huge expansion in the world television market ' almost by 30%. I was wondering whether we should try to get a percentage of the television revenue, rather than a total amount.

  • Specialist Training

    • Reference: 2005/0340-1
    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    What specialist training will be offered to workers drawn from the local work force in order for them to be involved in the construction of the Olympic Park?
  • Television Rights

    • Reference: 2005/0343-1
    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    How much revenue do you anticipate will be generated for London from the TV broadcasting rights of the 2012 Olympics? Bearing in mind commentators anticipate this market will continue to increase rapidly, should we push to keep the fixed percentage formula granted to previous host cities and that Beijing will get in 2008, or will London be better off taking a set amount, thus adopting the change as planned for the 2012 Olympics?
  • Lee Valley Park Authority

    • Reference: 2005/0345-1
    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    As the Olympic Park will be an extension of the Lee Valley Park, will the Lee Valley Park Authority have responsibility for the management of the Olympic Park after the 2012 Games?
