DECEMBER 23 - THE MP Derek Wyatt (pictured here with Sebastian Coe) is to organise a Parliamentary Olympic Conference on February 1.

 

Wyatt, chairman of the All Party Olympic Group, has arranged for the speakers for the meeting at Portcullis House to include Coe along with senior officials from the Olympic Delivery Authority and the London Mayor's office.

 

The organisers of the conference include Adrian Metcalfe, winner of an Olympic silver medal as part of Britain's 4x400 metres squad at the 1964 Games in Tokyo.

 

He then became a commentator for ITV and helped launch Channel 4's sport coverage before moving to Eurosport.

 

A full schedule of speakers is due to be announced shortly.
