HC Deb 06 April 1998 vol 310 c102W
Mr. Llwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what initiatives are being pursued to create a sporting school of excellence in Wales. [37372]

Mr. Ron Davies

I have no plans to introduce DfEE's Sports Colleges initiative in Wales but, as part of the development of the United Kingdom Sports Institute, the Sports Council for Wales is supporting the establishment of a network of sporting centres of excellence which will help to develop Wales' talented young performers. One such example is Glamorgan County Cricket Club's national centre of excellence in Cardiff.
