Retaining community sporting facilities in the east of the Island is "very important".
That's according to the Policy and Reform Minister who says work is ongoing to better understand sport and leisure requirements.
Chris Thomas was quizzed on the issue in the House of Keys earlier this week by Ayre and Michael MHK Tim Baker.
He said he was concerned a new draft plan appears to include the conversion of sports grounds for residential or employment purposes.
Mr Thomas said everything is it a very early stage:
Repairs on Peel Power Station to get underway
Manx Care doctor survey to be discussed by Tynwald
Weather warning for snow tonight
MHK queries safety at primary school in Ballabeg
Gales put two ferry sailings at risk tonight
Should the Island throw a birthday party for Barry Gibb?
Warning issued over icy roads
High ground could see 4 inches of snow on Saturday night
