Targets to encourage more than 2 million people to take up sport before the 2012 London Olympics could be abandoned by the Government.
The quotas, which were central to the Olympic legacy, are to be reviewed by sports and Olympics minister Hugh Robertson.
"When I came into office two months ago, the single biggest hole in the Olympic project was around the sports legacy,” he said.
"I am not going to have existing targets dragging the policy – we set the policy and then we set the targets to measure it.
"It may well be that once we've been through the process that we settle with the 2 million target, but what I'm going to do is get the policy right first and then we will set the targets by which we benchmark it."
