  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [18]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Can I move onto Lord Coe. In terms of the position over achieving sponsorship, can you update us as to the overall level of sponsorship that is required in order to achieve the aims and where you are in terms of achieving that?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [22]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    What are the financial implications if you do not achieve those targets by Beijing?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [28]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I am not arguing with the principle. I am just trying to understand how many of the 70,000 volunteer places will actually be available if the sponsors take up their allocation and do not decide to give them to the community. How many are going to be available for the community? Is it 60,000, is it 50,000 or is it 65,000?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [29]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I will come on now to sponsorship. There have been reports in the press that sponsors are going to get an allocation of tickets, which is perfectly understandable. I suppose you share my view and hope that it will not be like Wembley, where so many of the tickets are sold to people who have no interest in football and have their back turned to the game. My main concern is it is also reported in the press that staff of sponsors are going to get the opportunity to have some of the volunteer places. First of all I want...

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [30]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I am glad to hear that emphasis. The other thing you touched on was TV rights and that clearly is the cash-cow that underlies most of LOCOG's finances and is hopefully subsidising some of the infrastructure works. It is quite probable that this TV deal over the London Olympics in 2012 will be quite a major expansion from what it is at the moment. If the Chinese get hooked on Olympic gold, I think you will have two competing TV markets. What arrangements will there be for us to take a bigger percentage of that rather than take a lump...

  • Mitigating the Games-time Environmental Impact (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    OK. Perhaps this next question is to LOCOG. Have you clarified what your expectations are in terms of what the broad percentage targets will be for the management of the waste on the site? How much is going to be incinerated? How much is going to be recycled? Have you got any ideas at all and will that be in the planning?

  • Step Change and Public Expectations

    • Reference: 2003/0427
    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    Given the overwhelming public demand for more community based police patrolling on foot, will the step-change programme prove sufficient to meet public expectations? .

  • Cost of Capital City and Security Functions

    • Reference: 2003/0434
    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    Has research been undertaken within the MPS to examine if the funding from the Home Office for capital city and security functions fully meets the true cost of providing these services, and if so, what were its conclusions? .

  • Domestic Violence (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    That is very welcome. I think Sir John quite rightly said how important it is that victims continue to receive support. What are we doing to ensure that victims are kept informed of the progress of their case? Hopefully there is a lot of support usually at the beginning and shortly after the incident. It takes quite a long time to go through to judicial disposal. What attention is paid to keeping these victims informed?

  • Racism and Sexism (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    Given that those responsible for racist and sexist behaviour in the force have often been responsible for homophobic behaviour as well, can you outline how homophobia is tackled as part of the programme of initiatives that Toby outlined?
