At the Enterprise and Culture Committee meeting of the 5 September 2006, the Committee requested that SPICe produce a briefing paper outlining possible themes for a round-table discussion concerning the Scottish Executive’s review of the Sport 21 strategy and sport issues and policy generally. On 12 September 2006, members considered these themes and agreed to the proposal to hold a round-table discussion on the subject of sport. 2. The publication of the Scottish Executive’s review of the Sport 21 strategy, initially expected by the end of 2006 was delayed, with publication only on 8 March. Therefore, the focus of the round-table discussion will on sports issues and policies more generally, as well as trying to take into account the review of Sport 21 strategy published shortly in advance of the Committee meeting. 3. A round-table session with stakeholders has been organised for today’s meeting (13 March 2007). Due to dissolution, there will not be time to hear subsequently from the minister (as per previous recent round-table discussion), so the minister, or appropriate official, was invited to take part in the round-table discussion itself. Ms Pat Morrison, a civil servant in the sports division, will attend for the Executive. 4. The intended purpose of this session is to provide the Committee with an opportunity to take views from a panel of stakeholders and the Scottish Executive on the sport 21 review and issues surrounding sport policy in Scotland and then to prepare a paper based on these discussions, which would be sent to the Scottish Executive for its comment. The discussions would also inform the legacy paper prepared by the Committee in 2007 to inform its successor committee. 5. In order to assist members with the issues concerned, SPICe has prepared a briefing for this meeting, which is issued along with this cover paper. Please note that due to timing, this briefing was completed before the date of the publication of the review of sport 21. Members are requested to refer to both the SPICe briefing and the Executive’s review of sport 21 as background papers for the round- table. Participants 6. The round-table discussion on the 13 March will be attended by the following individuals and organisations— EC/S2/07/6/1 ¾ Julia Bracewell, Chair, Sport Scotland ¾ Steven Grimmond, Head of Community Planning, Fife Council ¾ Gavin Macleod, Chief Executive Officer: Scottish Disability Sport ¾ Ian Reid, Scottish Sports Futures ¾ David Arnott, Administrator, Scottish Association of Local Sports Councils ¾ Paul Bush, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Event Scotland ¾ Louise Martin, Chairman, Commonwealth Games Council for Scotland ¾ Gavin Hastings, Chairman, Platinum One (Scotland) ¾ Dougie Donnelly, Chairman, Scottish Institute of Sport Board ¾ Professor Fred Coalter, Department of Sports Studies, University of Stirling ¾ Chris Robison, Policy Director, Scottish Sports Association ¾ Pat Morrison, Team Leader, Sports Division, Scottish Executive. Next steps 7. Following the conclusion of the meeting of the 13 March, a note of the proceedings will be prepared by the clerk and, once agreed, this paper will be sent to the Scottish Executive for their comment and will also serve to inform the Committee’s legacy paper. Stephen Imrie Clerk to the Committee EC/S2/07/6/2 Agenda item 1 08 March 2007 ENTERPRISE AND CULTURE COMMITTEE SPORT – BACKGROUND PAPER Note: This briefing was prepared before the publication of the Scottish Executive’s review of the Sport 21 strategy. INTRODUCTION This paper provides background information for the Committee’s round table evidence session on sport policy on 13 March 2007. The following persons will be attending the round-table session: • David Arnott, Administrator, Scottish Association of Local Sports Councils • Julia Bracewell, Chair, Sport Scotland • Paul Bush, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Event Scotland • Professor Fred Coalter, Department of Sports Studies, University of Stirling. • Dougie Donnelly, Chairman, Scottish Institute of Sport Board • Steven Grimmond, Head of Community Planning, Fife Council • Gavin Hastings, Chairman, Platinum One (Scotland) • Gavin Macleod, Chief Executive Officer: Scottish Disability Sport • Louise Martin, Chairman, Commonwealth Games Council for Scotland • Pat Morrison, Team Leader, Sports Division, Scottish Executive • Ian Reid, Scottish Sports Futures • Chris Robison, Policy Director, Scottish Sports Association Attendees are aware that the frame of reference for the round table discussion is ‘Sport 21 – the National Strategy for Sport in Scotland – and sports policy’. This paper provides an overview of current sports policy and in particular covers: • Sport 21 and the review of Sport 21 • Other national sport strategies • The delivery of sport policy • The funding of sportscotland 1 SPORT 21 During the current Parliamentary session the key articulation of Scottish sport policy has been ‘Sport 21: The National Strategy for Sport – Shaping Scotland’s Future’ which was published in March 2003. Sport 21 (2003-07) represented an update on an earlier Sport 21 strategy which had been introduced in 1998. Sport 21 established an approach for the development and delivery of sport in Scotland. In particular the strategy established three visions of Scotland’s sporting future. These were1: • a country where sport is more widely available to all • a country where sporting talent is recognised and nurtured • a country achieving and sustaining world class performances in sport In order to achieve these visions, the strategy set eleven targets which all stakeholders in the delivery of Scottish sport were intended to work towards. The targets, and the most recent data2 in relation to each of the targets (in italics), are detailed below. Sport 21 Targets Target 1 – 80% of primary schoolchildren to be physically active In 2003-04 75% of girls and 76% of boys of primary school age were physically active. This compares to 77% of boys and 66% of girls in 1998/99. Target 2 – To make progress towards all schoolchildren taking part in at least two hours of high quality physical education classes a week Sportscotland makes the following comments based on information supplied by the Scottish Executive in relation to this target: In 2004/05, the average curriculum PE times were 70 mins per week in primary schools and 98 mins per week in the S1-S4 classes of secondary schools, with 5% of primary schools and 7% of S1-S4 classes in secondary schools meeting the two hour minimum provision (results for S5-S6 classes will be lower, but there is uncertainty about the fullness of returns for these). The average proportions of
