Lord Deighton, what we had asked for in our meeting back in March/April - I cannot remember when it was - what we had asked for and what we received an assurance about was that we would get the data immediately after the Olympics; it would be released to us and that we would be able to make judgments about the allocations. What we received was an embargoed set of aggregated data, not the raw data that we wanted. We received an embargoed set of aggregated data one week before this meeting, embargoed until yesterday, and we get the breakdown...

Another thing: can I put in a plea for water to be provided free of charge because at the Athens Games, if you went in, they actually confiscated your water bottle if you had one with you.

In the negotiations, the IOC would seem to be in the dominant position. They seem to hold the cards, to me.

Yes, it is purely speculative but clearly there is a concern there and it would be quite contrary to the spirit of the Games to have a separation for certain groups within the complex, would it not?
