HC Deb 29 June 1998 vol 315 c60W
Mr. Maclean

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what initiatives the Government took to promote National Swim Week on 17 to 31 May. [47218]

Mr. Banks

Swimming has my full support, as it is one our healthiest recreational pursuits. I was therefore pleased to see the National Swim Week introduced throughout the country, as it gave youngsters an excellent opportunity to participate in the sport and helped to raise important funds for Cancer Relief.
