The minister of Youth, Sport, Arts and Recreation, Kirsty Coventry, has implored Treasury to consider allocating more funding to the sector.
She told parliamentarians sport has become an expensive business since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.
Coventry made the remarks in a ministerial statement in the House of Assembly on Wednesday.
“It would be amiss if I do not share with you the evolution, in cost centres, that have been caused by the emergence of Covid-19,’’ she said. Herald
