HC Deb 23 April 1991 vol 189 c404W
27. Mr. Favell

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement on Saturday sport in schools.

Mr. Atkins

I am currently considering ways of encouraging more Saturday sport in schools, including greater partnerships between local sports clubs and schools. The Department is also revising its proposed guidance booklet on the community use of school sports facilities to reflect the recently identified need to amend section 42 of the Education (No. 2) Act 1986.
