Other Comments:  Under the fourth theme' Economic Development and Enterprise' no specific cultural and sport indicators are identified. Work is underway to develop further outcome measures for the exercise referral scheme, including looking at completion rates and at the longer term benefits for people. Data on heritage volunteers will also be available on volunteers' age and ethnic origin. Data will also be collected on the number of new residents and people living in deprived areas who volunteer. The indicator may be developed in the future to include some of this data. Data on areas of volunteers will be developed and in time may be able to report activity in deprived areas. Other priorities identified during the LAA process, which will be considered for refresh, include maximising opportunities from the 2012 Olympics.
