As well as the Government\u2019s unprecedented financial support for business, which many football clubs have accessed, we ensured that elite sport could continue throughout the November national restrictions, and in every covid tier going forward. Spectators at elite sport are also now permitted in Tiers 1 and 2 - a crucial step for sport\u2019s recovery.<\/p>
I welcomed the deal agreed between the Premier League and EFL to provide up to £250m of support to EFL clubs, including the Championship - to ensure that no EFL club goes under due to the pandemic.<\/p>

The £500 million Youth Investment Fund remains a manifesto commitment for transformative levelling up across the country over the course of the parliament.<\/p>
<\/p>
£30 million of the fund was committed at the Spending Review as capital investment in youth services for 2021-22, which is on top of the £750 million charity funding package. This will provide an investment in new and refurbished spaces for young people, so they can access positive activities and support from youth workers.<\/p>
<\/p>
Further details of the timetable for allocation will be announced in due course, following a review of youth funding.<\/p>
