Proceeding contribution from Richard Caborn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 December 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Olympics Bill 2005-06.

London Olympics Bill

I hear what the hon. Member for Bath (Mr. Foster) says, and we went over this in Committee. We are very proud that we were the first country to hold the Paralympic games in 1948. Overall, we acknowledge the major contribution made by the Paralympics and disabled sport generally. Broadly speaking, sport across the UK responds to that. I hope that we will be at the forefront in designing stadiums and other facilities for the Olympics with disabled people in mind, and I am sure that we will deliver on that.
