Ms Walley

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if she will list for each of the last five years, the football clubs which have received grant aid from the Football Trust indicating in each case(a) the amount of money awarded and (b) if the money was awarded in respect of (i) safety and (ii) community. [19906]

Mr. Sproat

Over the past five years, the Football Trust has provided £140 million for Taylor-related redevelopment work, £20 million for ongoing safety work and £5.5 million for community work at professional clubs in England, Wales and Scotland, as well as £12.4 million for non-professional and grass roots football. I am today placing in the Libraries of both Houses a schedule, provided by the Football Trust, setting out information on the grants awarded to individual clubs.
