Olympic Games 2012: Olympic Truce

Lord Faulkner of Worcester Excerpts

Thursday 31st March 2011 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Garden of Frognal]

The noble Lord raises an issue that has been in the news just recently. The two organisations that the noble Lords represent normally work closely together for the good of the outcomes of the Olympic Games and I have no doubt that, in the greater interests of delivering a highly successful 2012 Olympic Games, any disputes will soon be resolved.

[Lord Faulkner of Worcester]

My Lords, does the Minister agree that it would be in the interests of peace and reconciliation if the directors of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club were to abandon their extraordinary attempt to go to judicial review over the legacy issue of the stadium?
