Football Governance Bill [HL]Contribution
Lastly, it appears that any DLC imposed upon this urgency-type exception in Clause 23(6)(b) is not time limited. In other words, the IFR could decide that it needs to urgently attach a DLC but the DLC could then endure for a longer period, even though the relevant league might be happy to replace it with a commitment. In that context, my Amendments 174A and 174B give the league concerned the opportunity to offer a commitment, even in instances where the IFR decides it needs to introduce an emergency discretionary licence condition. If this commitment is accepted, this will make the emergency discretionary licence condition temporary. I very much hope that the Minister will accept these amendments.
