As the National Olympic Committee for the United Kingdom, the BOA believes that Scotland will undoubtedly benefit from the sporting and economic boost that the Games will give to the whole country. London 2012 (of which the BOA is one of the three key stakeholders, with the Government and the Mayor of London) will take the lead in responding to the Committee’s invitation to comment on the detailed points of your inquiry. However we thought we would take this opportunity to very briefly touch on the BOA’s role for your benefit. The BOA is the voice of sport within the London 2012 structure. It is the BOA’s priority to ensure that Team GB delivers its best ever results at the London 2012 Olympic Games and that a sporting legacy is delivered. Indeed a recent strategic framework review agreed a new aim for the BOA—namely to lead the largest and most competitive Team GB to 4th place in the 2012 medal table whilst developing the Olympic movement in the UK.
