HC Deb 23 November 1993 vol 233 c23W
Mr. Pendry

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage where the register of sports sites may be inspected; and which organisations have been given copies.

Mr. Brooke

Copies of the register of recreational land's database will be made available free of charge to the Sports Council, the Central Council of Physical Recreation, the National Playing Fields Association, local authority associations, local authorities, relevant professional organisations and relevant national governing bodies of sport.

The Sports Council is establishing with these organisations whether they require the information on diskette or on paper. Until the database has been circulated, all inquiries concerning the register are directed through the Sports Council.

Mr. Pendry

Mr. Brooke

The Government's grant in aid to the Sports Council in 1991–92 included £500,000 to establish the register of recreational land.
