Mr. John Treacy:
We acted very quickly. The athlete was notified within 24 hours. It was not ideal that he was in Rio de Janeiro but what we do is continue to test right up until the athletes leave the country. We are rigorous, and it takes time for analysis to happen. When we got the result, we acted on it straight away.
