ENGLISH INSTITUTE OF SPORT'S FACILITY AT GATESHEAD STADIUM

EDM number 1128 in 2008-09, proposed by David Clelland on 19/03/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Sports.

That this House expresses serious concern at the news that the English Institute of Sport facility based at Gateshead Stadium is under threat of closure; considers the provision of expert medical and physiotherapy support at this important centre of excellence as vital to the maintenance and continuing development of sporting excellence in the North East; notes that such closure would be contrary to the spirit of assurances given by Ministers that the Olympic project would enhance sporting opportunities across all regions; and calls on UK Sport and Government Ministers to act swiftly to prevent the closure of this facility in Gateshead.

This motion has been signed by a total of 14 MPs.
