520 _aExamines the development of partnerships in the sport and leisure sector, in view of the government's emphasis on PPPs. PFI has been used for few leisure projects and some consultants are looking towards design, build, finance and operate. The evolution of CCT into 'best value' has made partnerships with the private sector more flexible; operators are prepared to invest major capital into local authority facilities in return for longer leases. The growth in private sector investment in health and leisure clubs will provide competition with local authorities. Local authorities have reducing capital and revenue funding available for sport and leisure but the article ends with the question of whether sport and leisure in the future will only be for those who can afford to pay.
