INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE The President To: the Members of the Gamesbid Olympic Family For immediate release London, 9 February 2015 Re: Question-and-Answer Session As promised, the IOC is putting up a "Ask the Applicant Cities" thread to answer any questions you, IOC Executive Members or IOC Members, may have regarding each city's bid. Only rule regarding the discussion: Keep it polite and courteous. Don't make accusations you can't back up and please argue on the substance of the proposed bid. That way, we all will end up learning from the answers. To the Applicant Cities: Answer truthfully and creatively. NOTE: Due to the recent issues regarding the Applicant Files posted by Paris and Toronto, these cities will (for now) not be included. Once they have posted their revised Applicant Files to the IOC's approval, they will be given an opportunity to participate as well. The Applicant Files (in alphabetical order) Cape Town (South Africa) Copenhagen/Malmo (Denmark/Sweden) Melbourne (Australia) New York City (United States) Sapporo (Japan)
