Dr. Jack Cunningham: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if she will make a statement on completion of the
implementation of the recommendations contained in the report of the Elite Athletes Funding Group Report. [126332]
Mr. Caborn: The Elite Sports Funding Review made over 50 recommendations, the large majority of which are for the Sports Councils
and National Governing Bodies of sport to take forward. The Review was discussed at the Sports Cabinet on 31 October 2001, chaired
by the Secretary of State. The Cabinet brings together the Sports Ministers and Chairmen of the Sports Councils from each of the
Devolved Administrations. At the Cabinet, the Sports Councils accepted and are now implementing the overwhelming majority of the
recommendations.
Following the recent Spending Review, a ring fenced allocation of £4.7 million for 2004-05 and 2005-06 has been provided to UK Sport
to enable them to take forward some of the outstanding recommendations that involved an increase in expenditure. Some of the
recommendations relate to the World Class Plans and cannot be implemented until the current 4-year Plans have been completed. DCMS
will continue to work with UK Sport, the Devolved Administrations and Sport England to ensure that implementation of the
recommendations is effective and continues to remain relevant to the changing environment of high performance sport.

Dr. Jack Cunningham: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what progress has been made by the sports action
zone in West Cumbria; what targets have been reached; what new investment has taken place; what the projects involved are; and if he
will make a statement. [16969]
Mr. Caborn: A needs assessment and action plan for the zone was approved by Sport England's lottery panel in October 2001. This
provides the framework for action over the next five years and contains 28 tasks/projects to be delivered in year 1 which will
improve health, education and employment prospects for communities in the districts of Allerdale, Barrow and Copeland.
In addition sport action zone (SAZ) magnet funding of £99,313 has been awarded by Sport England to employ three "active living"
posts in Barrow. These posts aim to promote and increase the amount of physical activity accessed by socially excluded groups and
ensure that the community has a direct influence over the co-ordination and future planning of sport and activity in Barrow. They
will work in partnership with Health Promotion in Barrow, Age Concern and the Barrow Sport Development team. The project will target
groups such as young men, young women and middle aged to older adults, aiming to promote better health, preventive measures for
chronic health conditions and reduce teenage pregnancies. Further partnership funding of £282,629 has been obtained to develop bids
for the magnet fund. A further £282, 629 has been secured from funding organisations including: NW single regeneration budget; Youth
Justice Board; Home Office; South Whitehaven single regeneration budget; neighbourhood renewal fund in Barrow; West Cumbria Council
for Voluntary Service; sure start; youth works; Cumbria county council; health action zone; West Cumbria local health group; which
has enabled an additional £136,813 to be accessed from the magnet fund.
A sport for health manager has also been appointed for West Cumbria to promote the benefits of sport and physical activity on health
to organisations such as local health groups and Age Concern. Projects that are being developed in partnership with health related
organisations include promotion of the Walking for Health initiative to tourist boards, developing cardiac rehabilitation phase 4
centres and enhancing a GP referral scheme in Copeland.
Other initiatives include the first rural youth works programme for 8 to 25-year-olds aimed at reducing crime in one of Copeland's
worst affected areas, the development of a sport and physical activity directory for the zone, and the development of a programme of
"speedway" taster sessions to encourage young people to have access to safe places to ride. A successful Home Office funded
programme of summer activities for young people in Barrow took place this year involving partnership between Age Concern, the Barrow
Youth Inclusion project and Barrow Amateur Swimming Club. A survey is currently taking place in Barrow to ascertain current
sport/physical activity participation levels.
