  • Security During Games Time (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2008
    You have made it very clear that when the Games are on you are responsible for the security within venue, you said, so within, for example, the Park. Given that there have been huge numbers of break-ins over the years into train and Tube depots, how are you going to ensure that public transport does not pose a security threat, particularly when you have got lines bisecting the Park, going around the Park and, I think, possibly even under the Park?

    That sounds a pretty critical job actually.

    A very last quick question. I do not think you can probably answer it now so I wonder whether it is something you could perhaps supply us with later on but it would be great to have a staffing structure both within LOCOG but also how you relate out to all the other organisations. Is that something you can supply us with just so that I can look at it and then understand it?

  • Staffing Appointments (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    That actually jumps to my next question. I was going to say, do you have any problems when you think you have got the right person in mind and they do not want to come and do the job and do you have contingency plans when somebody turns you down? But what you are saying is that that has not happened.

    How far down the track are you to finding the right people?

  • Staffing Appointments (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    I think it sounds sensible to get the guy in charge of the funding in first and I am pleased to hear that that was a top priority. Is there a strategy therefore that you had an idea about which one you needed to go to next and you had a strategy to follow, each post following the other one?

  • Staffing Appointments (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    What are the big targets left to fill and are you on track in terms of timing?

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    So the expertise is really coming from the IOC as far as you are concerned?

    Okay. In one specific area, I just wondered if I could ask you, it does seem that the sheer scale of the transportation plans for getting people to and fro are pretty monumental. Which expert transport people are you getting in to look at that and have you got them on board yet or is that something that you need to focus on quite carefully?
