To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what assessment she has made of the effectiveness of collaborative initiatives which deliver community sporting facilities on school sites. [122095]

Mr. Caborn

The New Opportunities Fund will be evaluating the success of schemes under the PE and sport programme up until 2008—three years after the deadline for spending funds secured through the programme. A sample of schemes being completed under the space for sport and arts initiative—all of which will be complete by March 2004—will be studied to establish the impact of new facilities built.
