Lord Pannick (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 11 March 2025

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

May I suggest to the Minister that five years is an awfully long time between “state of the game” reports? That may be the defect here. The game can and does change immeasurably within a period of five years. Perhaps the Bill team and the Minister could consider, when the Bill goes to the other place, whether it might be more appropriate to have a more regular update on the “state of the game” report, perhaps every three years.
