The question
To ask the Scottish Executive whether it requires the provision of changing facilities for women when it provides funding through its agencies to clubs for stadia and other sporting facilities; what separate changing facilities have been provided in each year since 1997 and, if no such facilities exist, whether it will seek to provide them in future.
The answer
One of the criteria to be met when applying for funding from sportscotland is that the recipient operates an equal opportunities policy. Sportscotland funded projects, where practicable, provide separate changing facilities for both men and woman or facilities that are suitable for use by either sex. Statistics on the format of changing facilities developed since 1997 are not readily available. Details of provision for any specific club or stadia can be obtained from sportscotland.
