Proceeding contribution from Gerry Sutcliffe (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 February 2012. It occurred during Estimates day on Olympics and Paralympics (Funding).
Olympics and Paralympics (Funding)
As the then Sports Minister, I was able to go to Beijing, and one thing that concerned me was whether London could compare with what went on there. Having visited them, I know that the aquatics centre and velodrome are fantastic facilities. Indeed, I would go as far as to say that they are perhaps better than those in Beijing, so I believe that we have got value for money for the investment that was put in.
