Proceeding contribution from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 February 2012. It occurred during Estimates day on Olympics and Paralympics (Funding).
Olympics and Paralympics (Funding)
I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman, who is being very generous with his time. Surely he recognises the unhappiness that exists in places such as Perthshire and poor places such as inner-city Glasgow at the diversion of lottery funding and at the siphoning off of money from grass-roots sports organisations and good causes. This was probably not the best day for the national lottery or the best way to pay for the Olympics.
