UK Sport is working closely with NGBs to determine the appropriate level of facilities needed to sustain Olympic success ahead of the Tokyo Olympic Games, which are set to run from 24 July to 9 August 2020. The British Olympic Association (BOA), as the National Olympic Committee (NOC) for Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is responsible for Team GB’s participation at the Olympic Games.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>UK Sport’s high-performance system and investment approach is admired the world over, and Great Britain is now recognised as one of the world’s most successful sporting nations. Decisions over which sports to fund in each Olympic and Paralympic cycle are made independently of Government by UK Sport. This helps ensure that funding decisions are made free from political influence with a view to the best overall outcomes for our elite athletes.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 16/10/2018 15:56:39 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch

As such it is not appropriate for Government to intervene in these matters and therefore no assessment has been made, or guidance provided, on image re-use.
