Lord Pannick (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 December 2024

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

Surely, many of the concerns that the noble Lord is expressing—as, indeed, is the noble Baroness, Lady Fox—are answered by the appointment of a sensible regulator who will act in a proportionate manner.
