Answered by Elaine Murray on 18 Nov 2002 · 11 days after it was lodged, on time

The Executive's aim is to increase participation in sport at all age levels and in particular instil healthy positive attitudes in our children and young people towards sport and physical activity in all parts of Scotland. To assist that objective the Executive has allocated significant additional resources to school sport in particular in its most recent budget. Sportscotland will work with all education authorities including Renfrew in developing these programmes further.In addition, since the establishment of the Lottery Sports Fund, sport in Renfrewshire has benefited by almost £3 million.
