"Baroness Bonham-Carter of Yarnbury, Liberal Democrat Lords Spokesperson (Culture, Media and Sport):

Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of the UK's withdrawal from the EU on the free movement of elite athletes.

Lord Ashton of Hyde, The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport:
The Department recognises the importance of sport to the nation and within that the contribution of international talent, and the UK will seek to continue to attract the best of international talent across all sports. As the Government considers the options for a future immigration system we will also need to understand the potential impacts of any proposed changes in all parts of the UK. We will look to develop a system that works for all in consultation with all relevant sport stakeholders."
