Education and Inspections Bill

I very much agree with what the noble Baroness, Lady Williams, said. I trumpet the duty at the bottom of page 4. We need a reference of some kind to team games because they require so much space. If local authorities, especially city local authorities, are not told to provide space, they will stick houses on the space or do something else with it. They need to know that they must provide the space and that providing a climbing wall is not a substitute for a football pitch. What, in line 13 of page 4, does ““provided for their area”” mean? Clearly that is different from ““provided in their area””, but does ““provided for”” mean that it has to be specifically allocated to them or just available to them? That is an odd wording and I do not understand exactly its intention.
