Inquiry into participation levels in sport in Wales

The National Assembly for Wales’ Communities, Equality and Local Government 

Committee is to undertake an inquiry into participation levels in sport in Wales. To 

assist with its inquiry, the Committee would welcome your views on this subject.

Terms of Reference

The Committee intends to focus specifically on sport, but within the wider context of 

the Welsh Government’s commitment to increase levels of physical activity more 

generally.

The following areas will be examined in more detail:

 The extent to which the Welsh Government and Sport Wales are achieving the 

goals set out in the Programme for Government, the Creating an Active Wales

action plan and the Vision for Sport in Wales with regard to participation levels 

in sport; 

 The availability of datasets and statistics to measure participation levels in 

sport, particularly those disaggregated by equality strand and socio-economic 

groups;

 The opportunities and barriers to sports participation that exist for different 

groups of people, including by equality strand and socio-economic groups;

 What are the links between programmes to develop sport in Wales and other 

Welsh Government initiatives to increase physical activity; and

 The impact of the Olympic and Paralympic legacy, the Ryder Cup and other 

high profile Welsh sporting events and achievements on participation levels in 

Wales.

 

Invitation to contribute to the inquiry

The Committee welcomes responses in English or Welsh from both individuals and 

organisations and will hold oral evidence sessions in due course.

Submissions should be no longer than five sides of A4, with numbered paragraphs, 

and should focus on the terms of reference as set out above. 

If you wish to submit evidence, please send an electronic copy (preferably not in PDF)

of your submission to celg.committee@wales.gov.uk
