§ Ms WalleyTo ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage what steps she is taking to ensure that the Football Trust can resume its grant aid programmes for football at all levels of the game. [20992]
§ Mr. SproatI have recently met representatives of the Football Trust to discuss its future funding programme. I am hopeful that a solution will be found soon that will enable the trust's grants programme to be resumed. The Government remain committed to delivering on schedule the essential football ground safety improvements agreed following the Taylor report.
