Baroness Taylor of Bolton (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 18 December 2024

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

My Lords, I have listened very carefully to what the Minister said. I am very grateful to her for saying that she will consider some aspects further, because I think there is an issue here, especially in how we define a home ground. We may want to return to this at a later stage. In the meantime, it proves why every club should have its grounds designated as an asset of community value; we then would have the protection that we are seeking in this amendment. I am grateful to the Minister for what she has said and for saying she will consider parts of this again. On that basis, I am happy to beg leave to withdraw my amendment.
