Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 December 2024

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

It also gives the Secretary of State the power, through a statutory instrument, to specify competitions. These specified competitions will then define which clubs and competition organisers are in scope of regulation. Before making any changes to specified competitions, the Secretary of State must carry out an assessment of whether it would be appropriate to do so. In doing so, the Secretary of State must consult the regulator, the FA and any other stakeholders that the Secretary of State considers relevant. A report of the assessment must also be laid before Parliament.
