    • 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.

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Why do you refuse to publish a detailed breakdown of how many tickets have been sold, and at what price, for each event for both the Olympic and the Paralympic Games?

    • Question by: Victoria Borwick
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Are you satisfied that the predictions made in your business plan, particularly in relation to the popularity of the Games and the events leading up to Games-time, stack up?
  • London 2012 Food Vision

    • Reference: 2012/0004-1
    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Is it possible to deliver the London 2012 Food Vision for sustainable and ethical food, given the interests of powerful corporate sponsors from the catering, and food and drink industries?

    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Clearly everybody is obsessed by tickets at the moment, for getting them or not getting them. I understand that a significant number of websites have been taken down that are offering bogus - whatever one likes to call it - tickets. Is there any particular warning that you would like to reiterate to the public of the UK about buying bogus tickets and how to avoid that problem, especially for the 100 metres final?

    Mr Deighton, do hospitality providers have more than one source of tickets?

    Lord Coe, you know those annual letters you get about your pension and they send it off to you and they say, 'This is your predicted benefits from your pension'? One thing I do know is yours is probably a little more optimistic than my letter, but when was the last time that letter actually said to you, 'We are not going to tell you now about these benefits because it is ever-changing and too complicated for you to understand, but what we will do is we will let you know when you retire'?! When did you last get that...

    Gentlemen, about three or four weeks ago there was a Channel 4 Dispatches programme on which indeed Dee Doocey and my colleague Andrew Boff were fairly major contributors. I think that a lot of the problems that we have already been talking about this morning were dealt with in that programme, or those questions were raised, can I ask you whether you two can confidently refute the various allegations that were made in the Dispatches programme or not?
  • Business Plan (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 07 March 2012
    Part of the business plan, as you set it out, was of course about transport and traffic, and the part I want to concentrate on is the Games Lanes. There seems to be a little bit of confusion. In the last few days, there has been some suggestion that you may be allowing some other people into the network. Can you specify? Are you going to suddenly allow in black cabs and non-emergency vehicles, funeral corteges? Can you give us some detail, please?
