HC Deb 03 March 1997 vol 291 cc499-500W
Mr. Rooney

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage when she expects to announce the site of the British academy of sport. [16702]

Mr. Sproat

We announced on 25 February that the preferred site for the British Academy of Sport will be chosen from three contenders: the Central Consortium, the Heyford Consortium and the Sheffield Consortium. These proposals will now be considered in more detail by the United Kingdom Sports Council and my Department.
