Volume 490: debated on Friday 27 March 2009

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what recent discussions he has had with the First Minister on Scotland’s involvement in the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games; and if he will make a statement. (265520)

The Secretary of State has not had any recent discussions with the First Minister on Scotland's involvement in the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

In the last couple of months I have met separately with Tessa Jowell, Minister for the Olympics and John Armitt, Chair of the Olympic Delivery Authority to discuss how Scotland can contribute to a successful Olympic and Paralympic Games.
