  • Going for Green (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    First I would like to say that I was part of the visit recently to the venue and I thought it was absolutely amazing, so well done to David and John and thank you to Paul for showing us round. That was very generous of your time. That is the nice bit! Now where I think you are failing, Seb and Paul; you mentioned catering. Over the years I have written you lots of letters about the food and I started to narrow my ambition on what I can achieve, so I would just like to talk about chicken. In...

    I would like to go back to the risks question on security please. Could you talk a little bit more please about both the cost and the personnel issues? We talked about the training venues. I want to know a bit more about who will be responsible for the security of those, because you mentioned they were during the Games? How are you doing that? Also, the cost for us of that? That is not only at the venues but the transportation.

    • Question by: Richard Barnbrook
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    John picked up on this particular question. With the budget being - I would not say squeezed - and not there for aspects that we feel would be necessary for a secure Olympic Games and with the heightened threat of terrorism taking place, what sort of discussions - I do not want to go into the inside details of Special Branch and all the rest; that would be nonsense - have taken place and what sort of security can you offer to the public both in this country, and people visiting this country, that they will be secure in all...

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    The question is about climate change as a risk; two different aspects of it. One the risk to London's carbon footprint because, however much you are making savings, you are still increasing the carbon. I would like some figures. The second one is the risk of extreme weather events.

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Several years ago, during the bid process, Lord Coe and the then Mayor made a number of very high level promises; the most accessible Games, the most diverse Games, the most young people involved in the Games process and the most sustainable. Which of these are at risk?

    If I understand this correctly the significant private sponsors seem to have fallen to one side, especially on two particular major projects. One is the media centre and the -- Richard Barnbrook (AM): The question is - I put the information forward first so I can get the question out of it - with these possible cutbacks what future does the media centre have without private funding?
  • Risks (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Can I take a different tack with the ticket issue which is very important to sporting fans before transport and getting there. It is the reputational damage risk. The one thing that harmed the Sydney Games was 10,000 Australians, allegedly, applied for free public tickets for one of the triathlon sessions. I want assurances from LOCOG we are not going to have the same incident here and there will be the fair availability of reasonably priced tickets, which we all want?

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    In talking about risks we have to ask you this one. From time to time there has been mention, particularly with the Olympics, of cyber terrorism, the risk of that and the potential chaos that it could cause. The whole business of WikiLeaks in the last few days has raised the spectre of hackers. How far do you believe you are sufficiently prepared to deal with this?
