Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to review the governance of English football.
The Football Association is required to comply with the highest standards of sports governance as set out in Sport England and UK Sport's A Code for Sports Governance. The FA, along with all other National Governing Bodies of sport, had until the 31st October to demonstrate that they comply with the Code.
Sport England and UK Sport will be assessing the evidence provided by the FA shortly to determine whether or not the FA is Code compliant. Any organisation found to be non-compliant will be at risk of having their public funding removed.
