Sports Women And BBC Sports Personality Of The Year

EDM number 2491 in 2010-12, proposed by Geraint Davies on 29/11/2011.
Categorised under the topic of Sports.

That this House is disappointed that there are no women in this year's BBC Sports Personality of the Year shortlist; notes the lack of women in previous year's shortlists; further notes that high profile women in sport play an important role in encouraging women and girls to participate in sports; and calls on the Secretary of State for Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport to do more to involve and promote women in sport.

This motion has been signed by a total of 39 MPs.
