IAAF Taskforce : interim report to IAAF Council, 6 February 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.
The Taskforce finds that the Council should not consider reinstatement of RusAF's membership today. However, barring any unexpected developments, the Taskforce does think that it will be able to recommend (conditional) reinstatement of RusAF to IAAF membership if and when a number of milestones are met.
