Football regulator
Primary sponsor
Mr Clive Betts
Motion Text
That this House welcomes the ground breaking Football Governance Act 2025 which will establish an independent football regulator, with powers to hold to account rogue, dishonest and incompetent owners of football clubs and potentially remove their ownership of their clubs; further welcomes the speedy and decisive way in which the Shadow Regulator has issued a thorough and detailed consultation on how they intend to use their powers and given the desperate financial and governance situation at Sheffield Wednesday, recognises the urgency of appointing the regulator; and therefore calls upon Sir William Shawcross CVO to urgently conclude his review and for the Government then to confirm the appointment of David Kogan as soon as possible.
