Peruvian Olympic Committee President José Quiñones has played down concerns over the Lima 2019 Pan American Games project.
World Archery has launched an investigation into the sport's exclusion from the Lima 2019 Parapan American Games programme after they claimed they were given "no reason" for the decision, a spokesperson for the governing body has told insidethegames.
Deloitte, the professional services firm, have been taken on as general consultants to assist with development of a Master Plan for the Lima 2019 Pan American Games.
Delegates from Lima 2019 were in attendance at the second edition of the Americas Paralympic Committee (APC) Parapan American Games Observers' Programme in Toronto, where the recent Pan and Parapan American Games took place.
