WITH a month to go before the government takes over the ownership and management of the Singapore Sports Hub, there is still plenty of work going on behind the scenes to prepare for a seamless handover, said Lionel Yeo, the outgoing chief executive of the S$1.33 billion facility in Kallang.
High on the to-do list is dealing with over 100 existing contracts that are in force, and working with the new owners Sport Singapore (SportSG) – a statutory board of the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth – to determine if these should be novated or terminated.
These include more major ones such as those related to sponsorship, facilities management and the Kallang Wave Mall, as well as smaller contracts, like one with a company to provide kayaks and other equipment for the Water Sports Centre.
