5.1 The government agrees with the Committee’s recommendation. Target implementation date: October 2024 5.2 Sport England will take appropriate action to build on the substantial investment data already published and recorded its Annual Report and Accounts to date. 5.3 Sport England invests public money responsibly and transparently, recording and publishing data on all grant recipients – including location data down to postcode level. Sport England publishes an updated register of grant awards on a quarterly basis, with awards dating back to 2009 listed in full. 5.4 These records demonstrate Sport England’s commitment to providing funding to deprived communities, as 19.2% of local level investment from July 2021 to June 2022 has been for projects in Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 1 areas. 5.5 Sport England will continue to provide a breakdown of where National Lottery and Exchequer funding is invested on a quarterly basis. 5.6 In some cases, where funding supports the delivery of activity across a local authority area, counties or regions, Sport England does not currently capture the range of locations where beneficiaries may reside but will seek to capture these data moving forward. 5.7 Sport England will endeavour to set out appropriate detail in their 2023-24 Annual Report and Accounts and explain how investments are being targeted at deprived and less active communities.
