The findings of the McLaren report mark a very dark day for sport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe IPC will now analyse the report\u2019s findings in detail to evaluate what impact they have on the Paralympic Movement and Para Sport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter an initial review of the report, we note the 35 \u2018disappearing\u2019 positive samples from Paralympic sport between 2012 and 2015 and have sent a letter to WADA and the report\u2019s author <strong>Richard McLaren<\/strong> seeking further information on these samples. We have also requested urgent clarification from both parties to better establish how the findings implicate the Sochi 2014 Paralympic Winter Games and Russian Para athletes as the report defines the Sochi Games as the XXII Olympic Winter Games.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce we have the further details we have requested from both parties, the IPC Governing Board will convene for a telephone conference. The Board will discuss the findings of the report and decide what relevant action needs to be taken to protect clean athletes competing in Paralympic sport.
