Whistleblower Simon Latimer, who reported International Swimming Federation (FINA) vice-president Zhou Jihong for misconduct at last year's re-arranged Olympic Games in Tokyo, has been replaced on the updated Technical Diving Committee (TDC).

Zhou, the vice-president for diving, remains in the position of Bureau Liaison, despite recommendations within the organisation for the position to be removed.

The FINA Bureau confirmed its new members today in Budapest on the last day of the FINA World Championships.

Zhou is a member of the FINA Bureau.

"We are very pleased to announce the new members of our FINA Technical Committees," said FINA President Husain Al-Musallam.

"The Committees play a critical role in the development of aquatic sports and ensuring that we are constantly striving to improve for the benefit of our athletes and fans.

"We are grateful to the outgoing members of the Committees for their hard work and invaluable contribution, and we are sure that the new members will build on the great progress which has been made to date.

"Aquatic sports have so much potential, and it is very important that through the Technical Committees we continue to analyse how we can adjust our technical rules to make the sport more appealing to compete in and even more engaging to watch."
