Debate
Football Governance Bill [HL]Contribution
I agree with the Minister completely that there is no doubt, but the reason why it is not in the Bill and should not just be cast aside lightly is because of the danger of hybridity. Hybridity only exists when a Bill is injurious to a party or a group of parties that might be affected by that Bill. In this case, from the comments made across the Chamber, there is clearly a concern that, if it was considered hybrid, it could be injurious to a number of clubs. They would want to be consulted on that and there is a proper due process on hybridity that needs normally to be followed.
