MOSCOW -- Russia says the International Olympic Committee has asked it to provide evidence of how anti-doping procedures worked over a five-year period as it probes the country's doping issues.
The IOC set up a disciplinary commission in July under former French constitutional Court judge Guy Canivet to investigate allegations that Russian state and drug-testing officials covered up hundreds of doping cases, including at the 2014 Winter Olympics.
Vitaly Smirnov, a former IOC member from Russia who runs a government-backed doping commission, says he has received requests from the IOC to provide records regarding Russian anti-doping procedures from 2010-15.
Smirnov says his commission has collected the information and plans to provide it to the IOC this week.
