Asked by: Charlie Elphicke (Independent - Dover)

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

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what recent discussions her Department has had with football authorities on tax avoidance by football clubs, managers and players.

What individuals or clubs pay in tax is a matter for HM Revenues and Customs, and football clubs, players and managers are treated no different to others and expected to adhere to the same principals.
