Abstract
We present the results of a QCD fit to global data on deep-inelastic polarised lepton-hadron scattering. We find that it is possible to fit the data with strongly broken SU(2) flavour for the polarised sea densities. This can easily be tested in $W$ production at polarised RHIC. The data fails to pin down polarised singlet sea quark and gluon densities. We explore the uncertainties in detail and show that improvement in statistics, achievable at polarised HERA for measurement of A_1 at moderately low values of x, have large payoffs in terms of the improvement in measurement of gluon and sea quark densities.
