More needs to be done if the London 2012 Olympics are to leave the legacy promised when the
city was chosen as Games host, a London Assembly committee said on Wednesday.
Organisers are falling short on delivering employment targets, tourism strategy and sports
participation, the assembly's Economic Development, Culture, Sport and Tourism Committee
said in a report.
"The promise of a legacy was a significant factor in London winning the bid to host the 2012
Olympic and Paralympic Games. Urban and social regeneration, and increased sports
participation, were to be the hallmarks of these Games," said Dee Doocey, chair of the
committee.
