Football Governance Bill [HL]Contribution
Their amendments add a number of conditions to subsection (3) of Clause 1. They pick up an important point about the global competitiveness of English football and our leagues, and ensure that the regulator must always have regard to the growth of the sport. That is an important point. The current Bill seems to me highly static. The regulator’s remit seems to be more focused on maintaining football as it is today and not looking to the future.
