  • Experience (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 November 2012
    OK. Thank you, Chair. The question is to Lord Coe. You recall we had some disagreements about Dow's sponsorship. I want to talk about that. You mentioned throughout our discussions that despite the available evidence, Dow had no case to answer according to you because you claimed that full and final settlement had been made. Is this an issue you would have done differently? Your position, in my view, certainly was wholly unsustainable.

  • Business Plan (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    In terms of your business plan, can you explain how the Dow Chemicals sponsorship for the wrap complies with the IOC's Code of Ethics?

  • Lessons Learned from Beijing (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2008
    Just watching the Games you got the impression that it was a very top-down operation. Obviously the authorities in Beijing were able to direct the activities of their population, even down to telling them that they could only protest in one particular park and that type of thing. London, as you know, is very much more complex and rebellious than that. What plans have you got in place to ensure the Games can take place without making it a completely claustrophobic event for the people who have to live and work here?

  • Lessons Learned from Beijing (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2008
    Cultural diversity of London was seen as a great strength and virtue of our bid for London 2012, something which we understand clinched the success that we have had in getting the bid. What I would like to know is what progress has been made towards showcasing and promoting this unique strength that London offers and what is the current status of that?

  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    Are you planning for the possibility that Crossrail might be being constructed at the same time as the Games or are you effectively leaving that out of the equation, saying, `Well, it is probably going to happen afterwards'?

  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    Thank you. The Mayor tells us that he expects one in five Londoners to go away during the Olympics. I am not quite sure whether that is the sort of target you would have in mind. Is that something which you are relying on?

  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    I was talking more about construction than completion because a lot of the work for Crossrail at its eastern end would be close to the Olympic Park and if it was taking place at the same time that would provide you with extra challenges that you would need to overcome. Is that something you are planning for?

  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    And you are satisfied the bus lanes have the capacity to be able to take this extra traffic and not disrupt the bus service?

  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    You told us that you have got 240 kilometres of Olympic Route Network planned. How much of that is based on existing bus lanes and how much of it is going to be new work, effectively?
