2.1 Doping control process summary
in accordance with the IOC Anti-Doping Code.
The Doping control process can be broken down into seven discrete but related
Detailed below in Diagram 1 is an overview of the Operational Structure for the
steps. The seven steps of the process are - selection, notification and escorting

The steps are independent in a sense that there are specific policies and guidelines
that are applicable to each step and different members of the Doping Control team
are responsible for overseeing and implementing the different steps. However, all
the steps are interdependent on each other in order to achieve the overall goal of
the process - ‘the safe chain of custody of both the competitor and sample.’ Hence,
it is important that the policies and procedures that proceed and follow each stepare conducted correctly so that the chain of custody is maintained. Diagram 2 illustrates the Doping Control process.
