Could you expand on the case for this anyone?

I've got a couple of points to make:

1) To me the provider information should partly be 'Who do I go to discuss/complain/complement about this activity?' It's also information I would use to assess the suitability of an activity for my child to attend. If this is the case, would just providing the 'lead organisation' be sufficient.

2) From an analysis point of view, I might like to know about all the partners involved in delivering an activity

3) From a parental point of view, I may not know the lead provider, but I may know the partner, so that would be useful info.

4) There could be issues about who can assign/authorise the addition of another provider to an event (do all partners need to 'own' this activity?)

I'm sure there are more points to be made on this..
