The response to the bird's nest alteration is one of the reasons why the venue operators listed "to cover" the project, the podium reform and other factors (reporter Wu) Audit report showed that the national stadium (Bird's Nest) preliminary design estimates approved a total investment of 3.14 billion yuan, but the final project exceeded the proposed estimate of about 456 million yuan  In this regard, the national stadium operators to reporters that the "Bird's Nest" temporary alteration is one of the reasons for overspending. The audit report sums up the reasons for the overspending of the "Bird's Nest".  Mainly summed up as "complex structure, technical difficulties, high technological requirements, functional and standard adjustment, as well as the main building materials prices."  The above national stadium operators to the reporter examples: for example, the "Bird's Nest" was originally designed to have "top cover", although the removal of the top cover to reduce a spending, but in the re-argumentation for some time, the "Bird's Nest" in the construction of the shutdown, the construction party still have to pay the labor costs of workers and other expenses In addition, in order to meet the needs of the Olympic Games and opening ceremonies, the facilities in the venues have made a lot of temporary changes.

"BOCOG expenditure does not contain security compliance provisions," the bulletin said central arrangements for special lottery ticket 2.7 billion yuan for security and other aspects (reporter Wu) the Olympic Games huge security work, its expenditure why not separate in the audit notice? Yesterday, according to the former IOC Project committee members Wei analysis, the budget has different algorithms,Security is the responsibility of the Government, is not included in the Committee's expenditure, but also in line with the IOC's provisions. Wei said on the phone, there are many kinds of budget, different algorithms will have different results. If the security facilities are not handled by BOCOG, it is the government spending.  In this way, security can not be included in the Olympic Committee expenditure, which is also in line with the International Olympic Committee.  Wei stressed that he did not see the full report of the audit, so this statement is only inferred. In addition, according to the practice of the previous Olympic Games, the organizing committee submitted the final report to the IOC, in which the report indicated that the audit had been.

Yesterday, a former Beijing Olympic committee staff told the material "procurement approval" story. He said he had the department's annual budget for the media operations department, and "The overall feeling is that the budget is relatively well-off". Normal work costs can be reimbursed.  But the organisers are very strict about every expense. For example, to have a meeting, the staff will be compared to more than 3 conference centers, according to the number of meetings, technical needs and prices to find hotels.  BOCOG will not ask which meeting to be held at any star hotel. In the material procurement, the water project required for the media interview with the ship as an example, media operations project personnel, budget experts and traffic experts must form a group to Lin all enterprises that can manufacture such media vessels, and then negotiate one after another for the selected enterprises, and the negotiations must be in a small group, never individual to the enterprise.  The finance Department, the Logistics Department also must have the person to participate in the purchase the entire journey, carries on the supervision.
