Paragraph
Paragraph text
Encouragingly, some States provide subsidized or free access to sporting goods, services and facilities to certain groups in society. Sports activities for people with disabilities are free in Azerbaijan, in accordance with a resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers; similarly, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, access to sports camps for children is free. The Special Rapporteur recommends the adoption of similar approaches elsewhere, subject to the needs of the population and resource availability.
