Gay Games: Greater London

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what recent discussions she has had with organisers of the bid for London to host Gay Games X in 2018; and if such discussions have examined the possible use of Olympic facilities as part of the bid proposal.

[135930]

Answer

The legacy use of Olympic and Paralympic facilities is a matter for the venue owners and I would therefore encourage the organisers to engage with the venues directly. The venue owner for the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is the London Legacy Development Corporation. My Department stands ready to facilitate discussions if necessary.
