  • Olympic Village and Legacy (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 08 October 2008
    I assume the Paralympians are going to be using the Olympic Village as well?
  • Olympic Security Budget (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 08 October 2008
    Can we get the parameters very clear then. You are responsible for the build phase of the Olympic Site and the security of that build phase. You will then hand over to LOCOG who assume responsibility for the buildings and it is their responsibility for security of the delivery of the Paralympic and Olympic Games. Are you responsible for the security at Broxbourne for the waterway and at Weymouth? At what point do you hand over responsibility for the build site because I understand there are test operations that need to occur for a period of up to a year...

  • Undertakings made to the British Olympic Committee (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 13 October 2004
    Thank you, Mr Mayor. I recognise where you are coming from, but this Government does not actually have a very good track record on delivering things. Can I make it clear that I do support the Olympic Games for London, but I need to be able to argue it for my people in west London. My real question is on the security aspects of it and what assessment has been made of the security risk for London for 2012. Also, how are those security aspects going to be paid for, so that there is an upfront and clear funding for...
