Sports Academy

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether the decision to establish a sports academy at the university of Ulster has been subject to an equality impact assessment; and if he will make a statement.
Answer

In line with legislative requirements, the university carries out equality impact assessments where there is evidence to indicate that there may be differential impacts on one or more of the categories set out in the section 75 legislation; in this case, I understand that the university determined that it was not required.
