Football: Governing Bodies
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, when she last met representatives of (a) the Premier League, (b) the English Football League, (c) the National League, (d) UEFA and (e) FIFA; and whether she discussed the Football Governance Bill at those meetings.
Answered by Stephanie Peacock
The Secretary of State and I have met with clubs, leagues, governing bodies, fan groups and many other stakeholders from across the game on numerous occasions to discuss the Football Governance Bill. Most recently, we held a series of meetings in March 2025 including with the Premier League, the English Football League and the National League. This is in addition to frequent, regular meetings that officials in my department have with these and other important stakeholders.
