Ethiopia's greatest runner Haile Gebrselassie has told Newsmen that the drug testing programme for athletes in his country more must be more rigorous.
Newshour's Tim Franks put it to him that there are people who say the testing regimes are not strong enough. Haile responded saying "that's true".
He said that, for out-of-competition testing, there is a problem finding the exact location of athletes' homes.
But that's not the only issue and he said that the system "must be tightened".
Haile, who's now retired, won Olympic and World Championship gold medals at 10,000 metres as well as breaking numerous world records during his career.
