Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Faulkner of Worcester (Labour). It was answered by Baroness Scotland of Asthal (Labour) on Monday, 5 June 2006.
Football: World Cup
- Question
- What preparations they have made to secure the safety of English football supporters attending the World Cup competition in Germany.
- Answer
-
My Lords, everything possible is being done to prevent disorder during the World Cup. The German police have expressed a willingness to welcome visiting England fans and treat them on their behaviour, rather than their reputation. They are aware that England fans may be the victims of violence and have offered reassurance that they will protect as well as police the fans. Equally, it is up to the fans to build on recent successes and demonstrate their passion in a peaceful way.
