Olympic Bid
EDM number 1254 in 2002-03, proposed by David Clelland on 19/05/2003.
That this House believes that the bid to hold the Olympic Games in London must not be detrimental to regional policy and that scarce resources must not be diverted from poorer regions in order to promote the bid which, if successful, will require massive investment in infrastructure to support the games and periphery activities which will exacerbate regional disparities and add further heat to an already overheated South Eastern economy; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to fully consider the effect of this decision on policies to produce a fairer distribution of power and resources throughout the UK.
This motion has been signed by a total of 80 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
