Thank you. I wanted to ask you particularly about the sporting legacy and particularly school children. As you said, that is the one thing that you perhaps would have done differently with

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.

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?

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?

London's presentation in Singapore was centred around the inspiration of today's children and future children to take up sport, pass the baton on to the next generation and I think you said London's bid stood out because of this. You talked earlier about you, in effect, having to do the knitting together. It is fine to talk about it but how do you actually do that?

You said there were about 70,000 volunteers needed. Do you have any idea at the moment about how many of them have come from London and how many from outside the area?

I also want to ask about the pre-volunteer programme because that is about to start next year I believe. I understand that the initial pilot will be in the five Olympic boroughs and that there will be other areas that will be on that pre-volunteer programme - representatives in Haringey and particularly areas like Tottenham and Edmonton, where there is a great diversity and great deprivation and some of highest worklessness in London. I am just wondering how, as a representative, I can get those local people involved and how we will go about engaging our local community in a...

Can I also ask about equality in the volunteering programme as well, because if you look at Manchester, I believe they had a great successful volunteering programme and they paid particular attention to long-term unemployed young people, members of minority groups and those with special needs and disabilities, and I am just wondering, following the things that Dee highlighted earlier, will you ensure that there is equality of opportunity at every stage of the process? Will you be monitoring that as well?
