Proceeding contribution from Jim Fitzpatrick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 28 April 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (Amendment) Bill.


London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (Amendment) Bill

I thank the Minister for his kind words. When we launched the Olympic network consultation some years ago, there was general acceptance by the public—apart from an outcry in the Evening Standard, which was quickly contained—that athletes and officials need to be assured that they can be where they need to be. The only concern was the potential for abuse by those who think that they are more important than they are. Can the Minister reassure us that only those who are entitled to priority through traffic management will get it?
