16. The following facilities at each stadium.

a) Television camera positions to be established at all venues in agreement with RTVE and the EBU's representatives acting on behalf of the Consortium. These camera positions will consist of:-

i. main cameras in the central stand or on the terraces situated at the halfway line at the point of intersection between the line to the nearest touchline forming an angle of 40º to 45º with the horizontal, and that to the centre of the field forming an angle of 17º to 20º to the horizontal. If it is not possible to install the cameras at this exact position, then they will be placed at the nearest point within the sector formed by these two lines. These cameras must face away from the sun, and the commentators' positions will be situated on the same side of the ground. The overall dimensions of the space allocated for the main cameras should be approximately 3 x 9 metres, with easy access and security rails.

ii. goal cameras, one behind the goal, situated on the longitudinal axis of the pitch, at a height which permits the penalty spot to be seen above the crossbar of the goal. The angle of the line of sight to the horizontal should be between 12º and 15º, and a space of 3 x 3 metres is required for each camera.

iii. atmosphere cameras, of which there would be no more than three, of a portable type allowing movement along the touchlines and in the area behind the goals. The procedure for the use of such cameras at each stadium to be agreed between FIFA and RTVE.

b) Camera positions, for the exclusive use of television organisations, for the installation of film and/or electronic cameras for unilateral coverage related to the matches. For the first round, an additional space of 3 x 9 metres should be provided alongside the main TV camera positions, an additional space of 3 x 4 metres alongside each goal camera, and two positions at ground level adjacent to each goal line. For the second final round, an additional space of 3 x 12 metres should be provided alongside the main TV camera positions and an additional space of 3 x 6 metres alongside each goal camera position, and three positions at ground level adjacent to each goal line. The positions thus provided will have priority, and any facilities that might be provided for others will not interfere with the work of the broadcasters.

c) A minimum lighting level of 1400 lux read on all parts of the pitch, including the corner areas. In addition, the installation of emergency lighting in case of power failures, which will ensure two-thirds of the above-mentioned lighting level on the playing area. It is suggested that reference be made to RTVE's specification on lighting, which has been distributed to those responsible for the stadia which will be used during the World Cup.

d) Commentary positions including three adjoining seats and a desk large enough to accommodate equipment, telephone and working papers. A pencil light should be provided for evening matches. Each position should be separated from other positions by a plastic screen or gangway. The necessary transmission equipment will be under the responsibility of RTVE. The number of positions required by radio and television organisations is:

<table><tr><td>i)</td><td>First final round</td><td>100</td></tr><tr><td>ii)</td><td>Second final round and semi-finals</td><td>125</td></tr><tr><td>iii)</td><td>Opening match and final</td><td>150</td></tr></table>

After the draw, the Consortium will inform FIFA whether any possible reduction of the above-mentioned figures can be envisaged.

The commentators' area will be situated on the same side as the main cameras in line with the centre of the field, with easy access to the press rooms, radio and TV studios, and separated completely from the rest of the public. The distribution of all tickets for commentators should be undertaken by RTVE on behalf of the world's broadcasters.

[LC]

e) At each stadium, one television studio and one radio studio for use by the world's broadcasters to make unilateral transmissions before and after the matches.

The television studio shall contain three adjacent rooms:

- engineering control (approx. 30 sq. metres)

- production control (approx. 30 sq. metres)

- interview studio (approx. 50 sq. metres)

The radio studio will contain:

- control and production room (approx. 20 sq. metres)

- interview studio (approx. 20 sq. metres)

Both studios must be situated so that there is easy access to the press rooms, commentary positions and players' dressing rooms.

f) The agreement to place fixed microphones along the touchlines, excluding the trainers' and substitutes' benches, and in the stands to ensure that the atmosphere in the stadium is relayed to the viewing and listening public.

g) Free access to the press rooms at each stadium for radio and television journalists, in which they can receive the latest information of the tournament and prepare their transmissions of matches.

h) All necessary parking spaces at each stadium for radio and television commentators' vehicles, as close to the stadium as possible, and additional to RTVE's technical vehicles. The availability of parking spaces at each stadium will be discussed by RTVE with RCOE and FIFA.

i) A cafeteria/bar with rest area, and the availability of light refreshments in the media area during half time.

17. The necessary space for interview studios, one for television and at least one for radio, at the Madrid Press Centre with related circuits to ensure the transmission of interviews or press conferences to the International Broadcast Centre, by both television and radio organisations.

18. Film processing and editing facilities at the Madrid Broadcasting Centre in cooperation with RTVE.

19. Within one month of the draw, details of the proposed colours of the shirts and shorts to be worn by all teams that qualify, together with their reserve stripes, so that colour tests can be made by the EBU, who will advise of the acceptability of colours for monochrome and colour television transmissions. In addition, not less than 24 hours before matches, FIFA, in consultation with representatives of RTVE, will direct teams what colours to wear in order to ensure that the needs of television are satisfied.

20. For post match interviews using the studios in the stadia, managers, trainers and members of both teams will be invited to be available to radio and television organisations immediately after the match, according to a procedure to be agreed between FIFA and RTVE. In order to assist FIFA in this matter, it is proposed that television monitors be installed in the press room and press interview room, so that the written press can watch these interviews.

21. Sufficient time between the kick-off times of matches in order to ensure the satisfactory completion of pre and post-match unilaterals and sufficient time for the switching of circuits. Reference is made to Article 6 of the EBU contract, and in order to make this article more precise, it should be noted that the kick-off time of the first match or matches and the kick-off time of the second match or matches should be separated by at least three and a half hours.

The kick-off times have been established as follows:

(NB: local time GMT + 2)

<table><tr><td>Opening match, final & match for 3rd place</td><td></td><td>20.00</td></tr><tr><td>First match(es)</td><td></td><td>17.15</td></tr><tr><td>Second match(es)</td><td></td><td>21.00</td></tr><tr><td rowspan="2">Semi-finals</td><td>Barcelona</td><td>17.15</td></tr><tr><td>Seville</td><td>21.00</td></tr></table>

# 1. Fundamental Provisions

## 1.1 Competences

The FIFA World Cup is a competition of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) and is thus embodied in the Federation's Statutes.

In its capacity as executive body of FIFA, the Executive Committee delegates its competences as *organiser* of the World Cup to the FIFA Organising Committee which thus takes on the responsibility for the organisation and execution.

The FIFA Executive Committee also appoints one of the National Associations affiliated to FIFA as *executive agent* of the World Cup. This National Association is also answerable to the FIFA Organising Committee, whatever the internal regulations may be concerning the local organisation.

It is also important to point out here that the FIFA World Cup can only be assigned to *one* National Association and that the entire competition must take place within the frontiers of this *one* country.

The appointed National Association and its organising committee (the LOC - Local Organising Committee) are subject to the control of the FIFA Organising Committee for the World Cup. The latter shall have the last say in fundamental decisions about all matters.

FIFA does not recognize any 3rd parties or organisations outside the Football Association. Any pending problems and questions shall be settled directly with the National Association affiliated to FIFA or with the LOC. Hence, the local organising committee shall consist for the most part of representatives from the Football Association. This will guarantee that the authorized National Association bears the responsibility and control in its own country and not the other instances which are also necessary for carrying out a World Cup.

-3-

## 1.2 Approval in organising country

The organisation and execution of a FIFA World Cup is no longer possible nowadays without the direct involvement and efficient support of the government of the respective country. It is not sufficient for a National Association affiliated to FIFA to provide together with a consortium of sponsors the financial guarantee for the organisation of a World Cup. Too many important factors fall directly within the governmental sector of the executive country. Thus, it is absolutely indispensable that prior to the final assignment of a FIFA World Cup, a governmental decision be in force which:

a. welcomes the football World Cup to the country,

b. gives all guarantees for the success of this World Cup.

## 2. Initial Situation

2.1 It should be recalled that the organisation of the 1986 FIFA World Cup was assigned to the Colombian Football Federation by the FIFA Executive Committee at its meeting in Frankfort-on-the-Main on 9 June 1974.

2.2 On 17 May 1979, FIFA decided to increase the number of teams participating in the Final Competition from 16 to 24. The representative of the Colombian Football Federation expressed some misgivings as to the liability of the decision for the future (see minutes of Meeting No. 1 of the Organising Committee for the FIFA World Cup held in Zurich on 17 May 1979).

2.3 Following the successful experiences made within a sporting context at the 1982 FIFA World Cup in Spain, at its meeting in Madrid on 8 July 1982, the FIFA Executive Committee declared itself for the participation of 24 teams in the '86 World Cup as well.

2.4 Thus, in a sports technical sense the initial situation changed for the staging of the 1986 World Cup.

2.5 However, the economic, political and social situation worldwide has changed since 1974...

Moreover, FIFA has concluded a series of contracts in the meantime, which are already valid for the 1986 World Cup, thereby giving the economic-financial side a new aspect.

2.6 In view of this situation and specified facts, the FIFA Executive Committee decided on the occasion of the afore-mentioned meeting in Madrid on 8 July 1982:

a) that new terms of reference be drawn up for the 1986 World Cup;

b) that these terms of reference be transmitted to the Organising Football Association for comment and declaration;

c) that a special Sub-Committee be formed which would proceed with an inspection tour on-the-spot and submit a report to the FIFA Executive Committee, once an answer had been received from the Organising Football Association.

d) that it would give its final say on the World Cup 86 project on 17 December 1982.
