Debate

Sporting Events Bill [HL]

Contribution

Only public authorities can be designated enforcers under the Bill. As the noble Lord will know, all public authorities are subject to the public sector equality duty in exercising their functions. For major sporting events, we expect enforcement authorities to gather and share intelligence about breaches and associated enforcement activity to support ongoing proportionate implementation of the framework provisions.
