Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill.


London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

My Lords, I am grateful for all sentiments expressed, particularly because we are considering the withdrawal of an amendment which we have not even reached yet. That is an excellent bonus. I also pay tribute to my Bill team, who have done an excellent job. I hope that the spirit that we have all got with regard to this Bill will follow all efforts with regard to the Olympic Games. Indeed, I never had any doubt that—as far as this House is concerned, and as is true of the whole nation—that we wish the London Games in 2012 to be the greatest success that we have mounted in sporting terms. It is a fine ambition and we have done a small amount towards achieving that end. On Question, amendment agreed to.
