The local organising committee, which was represented at the meeting by World Cup winners players Ronaldo and Bebeto, will now be under scrutiny from Fifa and the sports ministry.
Up on the committee corridor there's the first meeting of the new Energy and Climate Change sub-committee on local energy (2pm) looking at the contribution small and medium-sized projects could make to the UK's energy supply, and at barriers to medium-sized and community-owned projects.
