London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

I think that the Minister has answered the point I wished to raise. But, to go back to his words, he said that the local planning authority has to approve the conditions regarding the disabled. That is fine. Local planning authorities and members of local authorities are subject to a raft of legislation. They are familiar with the obligations that that would impose. But, in this instance, on the main Olympic site, the local planning authority is the Olympic Delivery Authority. It is created as the authority to undertake the development of the site. I was not quite sure whether the Minister said that in establishing this authority it will be subject to all the same external legislation which would apply to a local authority, which is not necessarily a part of the planning regulations. I accept that the ODA will have, among its members, a person with relevant experience and, clearly, he will argue that case very hard. I am not absolutely certain from what the Minister has said so far that the obligations which authorities across the country accept are imposed on the ODA.
