IAAF Taskforce : interim report to IAAF Council, 12-13 April 2017 / Rune Andersen. - International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF). - Monaco : IAAF, 2017
This IAAF Taskforce report to the IAAF Council covers three things:
(i) It will explain the progress that the Russian Athletics Federation ('RusAF') has made since the Council’s last meeting in satisfying the conditions for reinstatement set by this Council;
ii) It will provide a roadmap setting out the remaining milestones that RusAF needs to reach to achieve reinstatement; and
iii) It will give the Taskforce’s recommendation in relation to RusAF’s request that the Council give athletes in certain age categories blanket permission to compete internationally in advance of RusAF’s reinstatement.
At the last Council meeting, in February 2017, the Taskforce identified six milestones that it considers will each need to be reached before it will be able to recommend provisional reinstatement of RusAF. Explained about these six milestones what progress (if any) has been made towards reaching each of them since that meeting.
The Taskforce is concerned that little progress has been made since its last report in February 2017. The six milestones are still outstanding and at present it does not look like they will be met any time soon.
