Mr. Tom O'Mahony:

Yes, but how does one define Olympics preparation? One of the major initiatives of the council is the international carding scheme for athletes under which it gives grants to individual athletes. It is also funding high-performance units and giving grants to various sports governing bodies to improve their facilities. All of these things will, in one way or another, support our Olympics effort. I will ask Mr. Morgan, who heads up the sports unit, to elaborate further.
