Football Governance Bill [HL]Contribution
The noble Lord’s amendment also seeks to narrow the purpose of the Bill to “financial sustainability”, rather than “sustainability”, as currently drafted. In our view, this would not achieve everything that is required. Clause 1 already defines sustainability. It is about more than just financial soundness; it is about continuing to serve the interests of fans, and contributing to the well-being of the local communities which clubs serve.
