This bill would automatically designate every sports facility as an Asset of Community Value under the Localism Act 2011, removing the need for local groups to apply for that status. The aim is to strengthen community involvement and protection around sports facilities, giving communities a better chance to bid for or influence what happens to these facilities if they are sold or change hands. It also includes related provisions to implement this automatic designation.
