London 2012 has today issued the following statement on recent speculation in relation to the use of Greenwich Park in 2012.
"The story carried by the Evening Standard about Greenwich Park 'facing the axe from the Olympics' is incorrect. Greenwich Park will be the venue for the main equestrian events. Greenwich Park is an integral part of our plans and will be a high profile Olympic and Paralympic venue in 2012.
"In the next few years, we will have discussions with all the sporting bodies about the best way to profile their sports in London in 2012. That is normal and an important part of our planning process. Any venue changes have to be approved by the British Olympic Association and International Olympic Committee, and we currently have no plans to change any of our venues."
