Debate

Sporting Events Bill [HL]

Contribution

Where impacts on the environment are a direct result of activities regulated by this Bill, provisions also exist within it to help us safeguard the local environment and communities. Specifically, where advertising or trading authorisations are granted, conditions can be imposed for purposes including preventing or reducing congestion, litter or noise. This current system allows for a holistic approach to what is often a multifaceted challenge, enabling organisers and local authorities to work in tandem to tackle the challenge of cleanliness at major sporting events as and where needed.
