Proceeding contribution from Lord Hart of Tenby (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 December 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on School Sport.


School Sport

Of course, we all agree about the benefit of sport, but does the hon. Gentleman agree that it is about a bit more than that? It is also about getting kids out of classrooms—not necessarily on to a sports field—and into different areas of the great outdoors, which relates to the benefits that he has mentioned. That has been held up as a result of extreme regulation and red tape. Does he accept that the Government have made some progress in stripping away that red tape to get children from the classroom to the outdoors?
