A SYSTEM to scrutinise controversial plans for Olympic horseriding in a royal park has been laid out.

But opposition group No To Greenwich Olympic Equestrian Events (Nogoe) has warned its fight is not over.

The plans for 2012 events at Greenwich Park were approved by a Greenwich Council planning board in March, despite a huge opposition campaign.

Councillors passed the application with a large number of conditions attached relating to issues including the stadium design and protection of the park’s acid grassland.

Proposals to meet each condition will be discussed by groups including Royal Parks and English Heritage.

Once accepted, a societies advisory body made up of the Greenwich, Blackheath, Westcombe Societies and the Friends of Greenwich Park will then be able to review the proposals.

Olympic organiser Locog submitted its first proposals to deal with some of the conditions earlier this month and the groups are already planning their response.

But Nogoe spokesman Sev D’Souza, whose group was not asked to join the advisory body, said: “We haven’t given up hope completely.”

Mr D’Souza expressed concern over the impact of preparatory irrigation work on the park grounds and may still launch a legal challenge over the use of Blackheath’s Circus Field.

And he said the group had written to the new culture and Olympics minister Jeremy Hunt in a bid to change the venue.

Mr D’Souza said: “We’ve explained how it's very wasteful of resources to erect a temporary stadium when there are other venues which would be much cheaper.

“We haven’t heard back on that score.”
