Funding For Sport England

EDM number 540 in 2001-02, proposed by Bob Russell on 10/12/2001.

That this House recognises the role of Sport England in developing sport at every level; believes that sport can help combat social exclusion as well as improve the health of the nation, with the beneficial consequences of less demand on overstretched public services; notes, however, that lottery funding for Sport England is projected to fall to ú185 million next year from the ú250 million it received in each of the lottery's first three years; and calls on the Government to ensure that Sport England has sufficient funds to at least maintain its current level of investment in grassroots sports provision.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
