Proceeding contribution from Maria Miller (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Anti-doping in Sport.


Anti-doping in Sport

I thank the Minister for giving way; he is being very generous. He may recall from my earlier remarks that I wrote to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to ask whether it was able to review the case. It said that it was not within its jurisdiction to do that. In the letter that I received from his predecessor, the indication was that the process is to go to the International Association of Athletics Federations, but the IAAF does not agree with the Government that that is the process. Going back to the Minister's earlier remarks about there being procedures in place, it seems not to be a strong argument. I am not sure that he is right.
