	answer	answer answer text <p>The Government is committed to ensuring all spectators have enhanced and appropriate access to sporting venues and services, and that professional sports clubs are aware of their responsibilities towards disabled spectators.</p><p> </p><p>Many smaller clubs struggle to meet even modest provisions for disabled access and raising the bar even higher, while admirable, would be placing an unreasonable burden on those clubs. The International Paralympic Committee’s guidance is there for clubs that want, and can afford, to meet the highest standards on inclusion and accessibility, but the <em>Accessible Stadia</em> guidance helps all clubs to meet the basic standard in the first instance.</p><p> </p><p>As such, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport is working with the Department of Work and Pensions on a range of measures to ensure that the rights of disabled spectators are met by professional sports clubs.</p> question first answered 13/10/2014 13:04:37 answering member 4161

	answer	answer answer text <p>Last year, the Secretary of State at the time did not attend the Open golf championship at Muirfield in Scotland to highlight their policy on not allowing women members. Prior to this, in 2011, the Minister for Sport at the time, spoke with the Royal and Ancient about the matter of hosting the tournament at clubs that do not allow women members and stressed that he thought that clubs with such rules need to change this policy.</p><p> </p><p>The Open Championship does not receive any financial support from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. Ultimately the decision of where to hold the Championship is one for the Royal and Ancient.</p><p> </p><p>It is not unlawful for clubs to restrict membership to men or to women only. It is a matter for single-sex clubs to decide whether they wish to change the membership criteria to extend to men and women. There are, however, provisions in the Equality Act 2010 which mean that where private clubs, including golf or other sports clubs, allow both men and women to become members, they must treat them equally regardless of their sex.</p> question first answered 18/08/2014 09:48:51 answering member 2539
