answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2017 answer text <p>We welcome the efforts of international bodies, like the International Federation for Intellectual Impairment Sport, to make their events more inclusive. The government supports efforts that aim to encourage disabled people, including those with Down's syndrome and autism, to become active and to fulfil their sporting potential. The government's sport strategy, Sporting Future: A Strategy for an Active Nation (published in Dec 2015), places a focus on encouraging activity amongst those less likely to be active, including disabled people.</p><p> </p><p>Government is not involved in the selection of the British team for the INAS World Swimming Championships - British entries are sanctioned by the UK Sport Association for People with Learning Disability (UKSA). It is for them to liaise with organisations like Down's Syndrome Swimming GB about British entries into the event.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 12/09/2017 16:50:25 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch
