(xi)Satisfaction with Park Legacy plans and the consultation process for Park Master Plans


Just under half of the respondents (45%) had heard about the plans to improve the Olympic Park and the surrounding area a 'great deal' or a 'fair amount', with only a quarter (23%) of respondents having seen the plans to improve the Olympic Park area. A fifth of respondents (21%) had heard 'nothing at all'.

A larger proportion of respondents in Newham had seen the plans to improve the Olympic Park area than (33%) than those who lived in Barking and Dagenham (15%) or Greenwich (16%). This is also reflected in the fact that 53% of the respondent who live in Newham had heard a 'great deal/a fair amount' about the plans compared to 43% in both Barking and Dagenham and Greenwich (see Figure C-37).



Figure C-37: The extent to which respondents that had heard about – and seen – the plans of the Olympic Park

In terms of where respondents had seen the plans: 31% had seen them in a newsletter; 19% had seen them at a local exhibition; 15% had seen them in a 'community brief' document; and 49% had seen them in an 'other' format.

A quarter (23%) of the respondents are satisfied with the community consultation process on the plans for the Olympic Park and surrounding area and the opportunity to input their views. with 18% dissatisfied and 37% neither satisfied nor dissatisfied. The proportion of satisfied respondents rises to 40% for those who live in Newham and falls to 15% for those who live in Barking and Dagenham.

In terms of specifics, of those respondents who had seen the plans, over half of them were satisfied with the plans for sustainability (53%), venues and sporting facilities (62%), retail and shopping facilities (65%), transport infrastructure and services (65%), leisure and cultural facilities (54%) and the Olympic Park and green spaces (64%). With generally less than 10% of respondents dissatisfied with any aspects of the plans. Only 36% of respondents were satisfied with the plans for education, health and community facilities – a finding that is consistent with respondent's views on the extent to which the 2012 Games will impact on these facilities in the local area (see Figure C-38).

6 International Inspiration was announced by the then Prime Minister in India on 21 January 2008, bringing into reality the 'Singapore Vision', ie the promise made by the London 2012 bid team to "reach young people all around the world and connect them to the inspirational power of the Games so they are inspired to choose sport". The aspiration is to reach 12 million children in 20 countries and the programme aims to use the power of sport to enrich the lives of millions of children and young people of all abilities, in schools and communities across the world, particularly in developing countries, through the power of high quality and inclusive physical education, sport and play.

40 Published data changed in 2005 from what was actually spent to the maximum that was committed for any given event.

41 It should be noted that it is not possible to achieve a 100% market share in many events and sports since a country may be restricted to one or two athletes per event and thus cannot win gold, silver and bronze.

42 The medals target strategy has changed over the 2000 to 2012 Games period. 2012 was the 1st year where a target range was introduced (ie min 40, max 70, average 55) with a published minimum of 48 medals as the target (roughly 85% convergence on the average). In 2008 the 'stretched' target was 41 medals with a convergence of 85% giving an equivalent minimum target of 35 medals. An overall medals target was not set for 2000 and 2004 - rather the total of the targets by sport were given. However using the same convergence of 85%, comparable figures of 32 and 34 respectively have been calculated.

43 It is intended that Report 5 will incorporate a detailed discussion of NGB perceptions of the uses of the additional funding by the NGBs, and their perceived effectiveness.

45 UK Sports pre-Games analysis of the impact of home advantage on performance in world championships suggests that home advantage had not been associated with enhanced performance in the cases of track cycling, triathlon, modern pentathlon and basketball in recent world championships, there have been significant advantages experienced in many of the other sports evaluated in this study, although identifying a pattern of such advantage across the types of sport provides little insight except in relation to "those water-based sports where environmentally-variable conditions may provide the host country with an advantage due to familiarity with the 'field of play'. Canoe slalom, sailing and rowing all demonstrate average performance increases of 25% or more for the host country." UK Sport (n.d.) Home Advantage The Performance Benefits of Hosting Major Sporting Events. It should be acknowledged that in addition to the general home advantage for elite competition, the size and significance of the Olympics means that there may be a specific Olympic effect.

54 Gross Value Added (GVA) is a measure of the value of goods and services produced in an area, industry or sector of an economy.

55 Output figures refer to the value of work done or the cost of providing goods and services. It differs from GVA in that it includes the costs of raw materials. GVA will therefore be lower than output. Job years is a measure of employment. Throughout the analysis employment impacts are given in terms of 'job years' in line with standard economic convention. Each 'job year' may be a permanent post, a temporary contract, or the full-time equivalent of several part-time roles. Also, it is not cumulative: so '100 job years for a 10-year period' means 100 full-time equivalent jobs sustained for 10 years, as opposed to 100 new permanent posts created each year. Total earnings refers to the associated wages of those employed.

56 It is expected that a clearer understanding of the scale of displacement to become available later in the year when we undertake the economic impact analysis on not only the build-up, but the hosting and legacy of the Games.

79 In terms of statistical robustness, the survey achieved the following: At the London wide level, a Confidence Interval of +/- 2.1% at the 95% Confidence Level (unweighted results); and at the five host borough level, a Confidence Interval of +/- 3.7% at the 95% Confidence Level (unweighted results).

80 The figures on reduction in worklessness should not be compared to the job impacts of construction in section 4.1. It is important to note that the reduction of worklessness figures relate to the impacts of Games-related programmes which cover a wider range of activity than the direct impacts of construction.

106 A total of 290 responses were received and a further wave of the survey will be undertaken post-Games in order to capture information from projects which had not commenced activity at the time of wave one. The datasets from the two waves will be combined and the resulting analysis included in Report 5.

107 The truce strand concerned projects which promote the principles of the Olympic Truce, for example by using sport or culture to promote peace, conflict resolution and/or cultural understanding.

108 The proportion of survey respondents from London and the East Midlands is similar to the level in the overall population of Inspire Mark projects (based on LOCOG monitoring data) at 15% and 10% respectively. However, projects based in the South East were over-represented (making up 10% of the population compared to 13% of respondents) and the North West and South West were under-represented (with the North West making up 9% of survey responses compared to 12% of the population, and South West projects accounting for 4% of responses compared to a share of 10% of the population).
