Australia’s chef de mission for the Paris Olympics, Anna Meares, has played down security fears, as her team’s preparations entered the final straight with 100 days to go before the Games are declared open.

On Wednesday, the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) unveiled the team’s official uniform, which will be worn by athletes travelling on a flotilla of barges down the Seine as part of an elaborate and unconventional opening ceremony on 26 July.
