Written Answers
Football Governance Bill
Asked by: Mark Eastwood (Conservative - Dewsbury)
Thursday 18th April 2024

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what recent discussions she has had with (a) FIFA and (b) UEFA on (i) the compatibility of the Football Governance Bill with their own regulations and (ii) ensuring that the enforcement of the Bill will not lead to (A) financial and (B) sporting sanctions being placed on football clubs.

Answered by Stuart Andrew - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport)

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport have met with FIFA and UEFA at Ministerial and Official level on an on-going basis as part of the engagement with industry in relation to the Football Governance Bill, which received its First Reading on 19 March 2024. During these engagements, discussions have included the compatibility of the ` Independent Football Regulator’s regulatory regime with FIFA’s and UEFA’s own regulations. We are confident that the Bill is compatible with FIFA and UEFA rules and will not lead to financial and sporting sanctions being placed on football clubs by FIFA or UEFA. We will continue to engage FIFA and UEFA as the Bill moves through parliament.

Football: Governing Bodies
Asked by: Lord Taylor of Warwick (Non-affiliated - Life peer)
Wednesday 3rd April 2024

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of the Football Governance Bill and independent football regulator on the governance structures and processes in football clubs and leagues.

Answered by Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport)

The Football Governance Bill, introduced to the House of Commons on 19 March, will establish an Independent Football Regulator. In consultation with interested parties and experts, the new regulator will publish a ‘Football Club Corporate Governance Code’. Clubs will be required to report on corporate governance, setting out how they apply the Code in their individual circumstances. This approach has been designed to be proportionate, and to increase transparency, scrutiny and accountability with regard to how football clubs are run.

Answered by Stuart Andrew - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport)

The Football Governance Bill was introduced to Parliament on 19 March 2024.

This delivers on the Government's longstanding commitment to protect the national game. By establishing an Independent Football Regulator we are safeguarding the future of clubs for the benefit of communities and fans.

Friday 15th March 2024

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, when she plans to publish the Football Governance Bill.

Answered by Stuart Andrew - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport)

This Government is committed to introducing a new independent regulator for English football, to protect and promote the sustainability of English football for the benefit of fans and the local communities football clubs serve.

The Government is working at pace to establish an Independent Football Regulator on a statutory footing as soon as parliamentary time allows.

Football: Governing Bodies
Asked by: Anna Firth (Conservative - Southend West)
Thursday 1st February 2024

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, if she will meet with the Shrimpers Trust to discuss the Football Governance Bill.

Answered by Stuart Andrew - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport)

The Secretary of State, the Minister for Sport and DCMS officials have undertaken extensive engagement with stakeholders across English football, during the Fan Led review of Football Governance and following the publication of the Football Governance White Paper last year.

This has included several meetings with the Shrimpers Trust, at Ministerial and official level, most recently in November 2023. We would like to thank the Trust for their engagement to date and would welcome their on-going engagement and support going forward.
