Proceeding contribution from Mike Weatherley (Conservative) 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 my hon. Friend will be aware, ticketing raised £527 million up to December 2011, and could have raised considerably more had it been based on a free-market approach. Given that the model of secondary ticketing has been banned in the Olympics and given the inspirational nature of the Olympics and other cultural and sporting events, does he agree that the same model should be considered for other events too?
