HC Deb 02 May 2000 vol 349 c16W
Mr. Faber

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if it remains his policy that a venue suitable for staging the World Athletics Championships would require a capacity of about 60,000. [114146]

Kate Hoey

[holding answer 14 March 2000]: My right hon. Friend does not have such a policy. UK Athletics have confirmed their key aims as being a stadium of 45,000-50,000 seats with support facilities to stage the World Athletics Championships.
