Paul Farrelly (Newcastle-under-Lyme) (Lab)
We will have the opportunity to debate the Culture, Media and Sport Committee’s report on football governance this afternoon in Westminster Hall, although, ideally, we would have wanted to have debated the report after the FA had responded. The Minister says that he still expects the FA to respond by the end of February, but that is not our understanding, so when does he really expect a response from the football authorities?
Hugh Robertson
I absolutely do expect the football authorities to respond by the end of February. That is the deadline to which we are working.
