What are the circumstances behind the decision to disclose the details of the Host City Contract and what is the reason for the disclosure?

In line with the Agenda 2020 framework, which aims to recognise the individual needs of Organising Committees of the Olympic Games (OCOG), all Tokyo 2020 signatories worked to incorporate, where appropriate, the updated operational requirements that were published by the IOC in 2015. With this agreement now finalised between all stakeholders, we are publishing the Host City Contract.
