Support

Representation ID: 24275

Received: 19/11/2015

Respondent: Sport England

Sport England supports the modifications made to this policy which now include the need to provide for indoor as well as outdoor sports facilities where justified. The policy supporting text also makes reference to the emerging Playing Pitch Strategy and Sports Facilities Strategy as key documents that will help to inform policy/decision making as well as identify priorities for enhancing off-site facilities if on-site provision is not a reasonable option. Sport England welcomes the reference to these up to date and robust evidence bases.
