Part 2: Association with the Games Section 4: Authorised association
Section 4 provides for the Organising Committee to grant an authorisation to a person acting in the course of a business so that they may legitimately associate with the Games. Use of a representation by an authorised person will not infringe the right of association described in section 3.
	Subsection (2) provides that such an authorisation may be granted in relation to a person acting in the course of business (or a group of businesses). It may also be granted in respect of a particular type of representation – such as if the Organising Committee decided to allow the use of a particular type of representation to express general support for the Games. An authorisation may also be subject to conditions or be revoked.
	Subsection (3) allows the Organising Committee to take account of any agreements entered into by others - for example the Secretary of State - when considering whether to grant an authorisation. Subsection (4) requires that authorisations be given in writing.
