Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what consultation his Department has had with the Sports Council on the effect of value added tax on British sport; what views have been put to the Department by the Sports Council, and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Eldon Griffiths

The Sports Council has established a working group to study the net effect of value added tax on sport. The chairman of the council will be letting me have his council's views as soon as he can.
