Lord Markham (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 December 2024

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

I thank the noble Lord. Of course, we want to have the flexibility to react to such situations. This issue comes up in various other contexts, such as government statements. There are lots of points where the Secretary of State can vary the approach. The question is: how do we get the checks and balances right? However, I think there is basic agreement on this issue, and I would like to hear the Minister’s views.
