Speaking in the House of Lords on 26 March 2025

Debate

Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill)

Contribution

Let me come back to some really important points raised by the noble Lord, Lord Moynihan, and followed up by the noble Baroness, Lady Grey-Thompson, in relation to children and their access to sporting provision. The Government are committed to improving access to sports and physical activity for everybody, wherever they live. No matter where people are in this country, or who they are, they should have access to the best sports facilities and opportunities to get active. I hear the noble Lord strongly and share a lot of his passion and annoyance. As a former Olympian, he speaks from experience and depth of knowledge.
