§ Mr. Monroasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what estimate he has made of the costs to football, rugby union and rugby league through the implementation of the measures he proposes under the Safety of Sports Grounds Bill [Lords].
§ Dr. SummerskillNo precise estimate is possible. Much will depend on the state of each ground at the time it is designated and on the decision of the local authority, in consultation with the club concerned, as to the safety requirements which are reasonable in all the circumstances.
