The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, whether she has had discussions with the Football Association on increasing funding for Futsal to pre-pandemic levels.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock

The Football Association is the recognised National Governing Body for futsal. As they are independent of Government, it is ultimately their responsibility to address issues related to the funding and profile of the game.

To date, this Government has not had any discussions with the FA relating to futsal or its funding.
