The proportion of open space in the Olympic Park has not changed since the original bid application, the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) said today.
ODA Chief Executive David Higgins said: "There has been speculation in the media that we have cut the proportion of open space in the Olympic Park. This is wrong.
"The fact is that the planning applications for 2004 and 2007 cover different areas - the boundaries of the Park have changed so it is not possible to compare them.
"Where previously there was one application there are now several covering broadly the same area."
