Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Oliver Dowden and Chris Loder

Thursday 18th March 2021 Commons Chamber

[Oliver Dowden]

That is why all outdoor sports can resume from 29 March, and I would note that that is the first significant easing after schools. In addition, the Education Secretary and I are working closely with sports’ national governing bodies and Sport England on an extensive offer of activities in schools over the summer period.

[Chris Loder (West Dorset) (Con)]
