§ Mr. DawsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what assessment he has made of the most appropriate way to support small equestrian establishments. [41667]
§ Mr. Banks[holding answer 12 May 1998]: None directly. However, the Government recognise the importance of sport and we want to ensure access to a wide range of facilities, including equestrian, for the many not the few. The English and UK Sports Councils continue to work with local authorities and governing bodies on the best way of meeting this aim.
