answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/11/2014 answer text <p><strong>This Government is committed to the sporting industry. I am pleased that Sport England always seeks to leverage in support from local stakeholders where possible. To encourage local investment in sport, Sport England has produced a range of tools which not only demonstrate the economic and social value of sport for local communities, but also the health benefits of physical activity. This data and insight, which shows that sport offers a good return on investment for local communities, is shared with local authorities and other potential investors. Sport England also encourages applicants to its National Lottery award programmes to seek matched funding from local stakeholders such as local authorities, educational institutions, local businesses and sports clubs.</strong></p> answering member constituency Maidstone and The Weald answering member printed Mrs Helen Grant question first answered 24/11/2014 16:15:11 answering member 4018 label Biography information for Mrs Helen Grant
