Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussions they have had with United Kingdom businesses that sponsor FIFA regarding how to achieve more accessible, efficient, transparent and accountable management of that organisation.
The Government acknowledges and welcomes the important role of FIFA's sponsors in pushing for reform of FIFA. To date, the Government has not had any discussions with FIFA sponsors about the management of FIFA. FIFA's sponsors will be aware of Government's views that urgent reform of FIFA is needed, however it remains a decision for them as to how they now choose to work with FIFA following Sepp Blatter’s resignation.
