Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 December 2024

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

Finally, on Amendments 174A and 174B, the notice period of 14 days specified in Clause 23(4) would not enable the club to align internally within its league on any commitment in lieu of a DLC that it might be willing to offer the IFR, especially if the commitment was in relation to a rule change that requires shareholder approval. That is difficult to get within 14 days. This risks significantly reducing the use of the commitments in lieu procedure.
