Proceeding contribution from Richard Caborn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 February 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Professional Football (Regulation).


Professional Football (Regulation)

The Government have written to the FA about strengthening its governance with the seven-point plan approved by the previous Secretary of State for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, my right hon. Friend the Member for Leigh (Andy Burnham). Would the hon. Gentleman support that type of approach towards the FA? That would involve stronger regulation until it gets its house in order, which would make it stronger and better able to deal with any of the problems within football, whether in the premier league or elsewhere. It is important to get cross-party consensus on that.
