Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 January 2025

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

I understand concerns that the process may appear interventionist but, as I have laid out prior to this debate, the opportunity for the leagues to come to an independent agreement before this process is triggered is always a viable option and one that we would encourage. It is also important to ensure that we have safeguards built into the backstop process.
