<p>"SIS Live fulfilled its contractual obligations, against which all payments should have been made by now. The company is owed Rs.96 crore," the British envoy said, a day after Australia raised with India the matter of unpaid bills of Australian firms for their work during the Oct 3-14 Games.<br /><br />"It is not right that the company should be penalised in this way. We look forward to early resolution of this matter," Stagg said. <br /><br />"We are pursuing this matter with extreme urgency. SIS Live is a leading British broadcaster with over 70 years' experience of covering major international sporting events," the British envoy said. <br /><br />He stressed that SIS Live's coverage of the Delhi Commonwealth Games was widely praised as "first-class".<br /><br />Australia Thursday raised the issue of millions of dollars owed to its firms by the CWG Organising Committee with visiting External Affairs Minister S.M.
