Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Daniel Zeichner and Stephanie Peacock

Thursday 26th February 2026 Commons Chamber

[Stephanie Peacock]

Sport England is not losing its status; there is a consultation. The Prime Minister and I have met a number of times to discuss the issue. Having committed £400 million to grassroot sports, we do not want to see playing fields and grassroots sports reduced.

[Daniel Zeichner (Cambridge) (Lab)]
