Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Addington (Liberal Democrat). It was answered by Lord Gardiner of Kimble (Conservative) on Tuesday, 4 November 2014.
Sport: Funding
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they will consider new funding criteria for team sports in the light of UK Sport’s public consultation on their approach to funding elite sport.
- Answer
-
My Lords, decisions on elite funding criteria are for UK Sport. Its no-compromise approach has delivered our greatest ever Olympic performances in London and Sochi and exceptional Paralympic successes. We remain in discussion with UK Sport and Sport England on how to maximise the potential of sport to reach more people and succeed at the highest level. We await with interest the outcome of UK Sport’s consultation.
