German officials unhappy over lack of transparency in 2032 Olympic bid process Friday, 26 February 2021
German officials have expressed concern over the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) new candidature process, as the decision to install Brisbane as the preferred bidder for the 2032 Olympics and Paralympics has effectively ended the Rhine-Ruhr proposal to host the Games.
The IOC announced on Wednesday (February 24) that it would open exclusive negotiations with Australian officials as part of a targeted dialogue phase.
This followed the IOC Executive Board s decision to approve a recommendation from the Future Host Summer Commission.
insidethegames had earlier exclusively revealed that Brisbane would be installed as the IOC s non-binding preferred bidder.
