Clause 58 sets out a clear process for relevant leagues to follow when making an application. Before making an application, the relevant league must first notify the other relevant league and the regulator of their intention. This prevents either league being blindsided by the process being triggered. As part of this, they must set out the issues they wish to be resolved, explain why one of the relevant conditions in Clause 57 is met, and invite representations from the other specified competition organiser. This act in itself may help trigger useful discussion between the leagues, as clearly outlining the issues preventing an agreement moving forward will bring the leagues closer to compromise.
