§ Lord Moynihanasked Her Majesty's Government:
How much money Sport England has spent each year on capital and revenue costs at Crystal Palace National Sports Centre since 1997 [HL1339]
§ The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Culture, Media and Sport (Lord McIntosh of Haringey)The figures requested are shown in the following table:
Financial Year Revenue1 Capital3 £ £ 1996–97 637,073 212,471 1997–98 962,571 116,437 1998–99 1,172,869 80,314 1999–2000 1,158,811 318,137 2000–01 21,153,775 99,919 2001–02 2,032,417 16,016 2002–03 2,237,897 0 2003–04Year to date 2,434,447 0 Notes:
1 The revenue figures are net of operating income.
2 In October 2000 there was a change in contractor operating the Crystal Palace Sports Centre on behalf of Sport England. The current contractor operates the centre on a full repairing lease contract. The previous contractor operated the centre on a part repairing lease. The difference betweeen the contracts, together with a different treatment of income under the contracts, makes it difficult to compare results between 1996–97 to October 2000 and the period after October 2000.
3 The capital works programme at Crystal Palace is largely undertaken by the new contractor with Sport England only responsible for a minor amount of the capital works undertaken.
