Lottery Grant To Manchester United Football Club And Others

EDM number 2028 in 2005-06, proposed by Nigel Evans on 25/04/2006.

That this House notes with disdain that the second richest football club in the world, Manchester United, and a number of other financially secure organisations have been awarded lottery grants by Sport England, whilst a number of other charities and good causes which rely on lottery funding have been turned down; and asks the Secretary of State to look again at the rules pertaining to lottery grants and to ensure that the money that is provided is concentrated on those charities and good causes which rely on the National Lottery for funding and is not diverted to organisations which can easily fund their activities from within their own resources, as was intended when the National Lottery was set up in 1994.

This motion has been signed by a total of 67 MPs.
