In the light of the fact that the street leagues use sport to transform the lives of individuals from underprivileged, poorly educated and socially and economically excluded communities, does the Minister agree that this is a very valuable initiative in terms of mental health, recidivism rates and cost effectiveness? Will he liaise with his counterparts in the Departments of Health and Justice and Equality to ensure the leagues receive sufficient funding to continue their valuable work?
