99. Mr. Willey

asked the Minister of Education if he will now state what steps he is taking to give greater assistance and encouragement to sport.

Sir D. Eccles:

I would refer the hon. Member to the Answer I gave to the hon. Member for East Ham, North (Mr. Prentice) on 31st January.

In the meantime I shall be making some increase in the grants to the Central Council of Physical Recreation and to certain other voluntary bodies, including grants for coaching schemes, for 1961–62.
