The question

To ask the Scottish Executive what action it is taking to increase the number of registered community amateur sports clubs.

The answer

Answered by Patricia Ferguson on 6 Oct 2004

A letter was issued in May by the Scottish Sports Association to the ScottishAssociation of Local Sports Councils, sports governing bodies and local sports councils outlining the benefits of registering as a community amateur sports club with the Inland Revenue. We have no other plans in advance of the appropriate legislative vehicle introducing a statutory scheme for rates relief for community amateur sports clubs.
