	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/06/2014 answer text <p>Sport England does not allocate its budget on a geographical basis. It is investing £1 billion in grassroots sport in England between 2012-2017. About half of this, £493 million, is being invested in national governing of bodies of sport which work in all regions of England. Sport England also awards grants directly to sports clubs and projects through a range of specific funds according to the strength of applications received and evidence of local need. Sport England works proactively to identify areas which require greater investment and links with local stakeholders to make this happen wherever possible.</p><p>While it is not possible to identify a budget for a particular area per se, it is possible to give the total value of National Lottery awards made by Sport England directly to sports clubs, projects and local authorities in a given area.</p><p>Since 2010, projects in Barnsley have been awarded £700,988 and, for South Yorkshire, the figure is £8,755,741.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Maidstone and The Weald answering member printed Mrs Helen Grant question first answered 24/06/2014 14:16:19 answering member 4018 label Biography information for Mrs Helen Grant

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2014 answer text <p>The FA have been recording cases of antidiscrimination centrally since the start of the 2013/14 season, cases having previously been recorded by County FAs. The 2013/14 season showed 587 antidiscrimination cases in total of which 8% were in respect of sexual orientation.</p><p> </p><p>DCMS and The FA take matters of discrimination very seriously: any form of racism, anti-Semitism or homophobia is completely unacceptable. Following the 2012 Downing Street summit on racism in football, The FA are now delivering against a whole sport Inclusion and Anti-Discrimination Plan called “Football’s for Everyone” to build equality and inclusion in football. I welcome this commitment, and specific initiatives, such as “Football vs Homophobia”. The FA Inclusion Advisory Board reports quarterly to DCMS on progress.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Maidstone and The Weald answering member printed Mrs Helen Grant question first answered 11/09/2014 10:17:14 answering member 4018 label Biography information for Mrs Helen Grant
