74 Mr. Crowe asked the Minister for Education and Science if she will conduct an audit into physical education facilities in schools. [30540/04]
View answerMy Department has no plans at present to conduct an audit of PE and sports facilities in schools. However, the Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism intends to establish an inter-agency steering group shortly to commence work on developing a long-term strategic plan for the provision of sports facilities.
One of the first tasks for this group will be to oversee the commencement of a national audit of sports facilities. Careful consideration will be given by this steering group to the scope of such an audit, in terms of the type, size and location of such facilities to be included.
