Proceeding contribution from Lord Gove (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 30 November 2010. It occurred during Opposition day on School Sports Funding.


School Sports Funding

I will not give way at this stage. As well as a fall in the number of schools offering these sports, the numbers taking part in competition have also been lower than we would expect. Just two in five people take part in competitive sport within a school—intra-school competition—and just one in five in competitive sport between schools.
