This white paper sets out the government’s comprehensive plan to introduce an independent regulator for professional clubs in the English football pyramid.
Following the Fan-Led Review of Football Governance, this white paper sets out the government’s plans to deliver an independent regulator to ensure the long-term sustainability of the English football pyramid.
This includes the legislative framework for regulation, with the primary strategic purpose to ensure that English football is sustainable and resilient, for the benefit of fans and local communities. The white paper also sets out government’s broader non-legislative reform measures, to drive industry action in areas outside of the regulator’s remit and ensure the ongoing development of both the men’s and women’s games, at elite and grassroots levels.
The white paper proposes establishing, in law, a new licensing system for football clubs operating in the top 5 tiers of the English football pyramid, overseen by an independent regulator. Football clubs will be required to comply with licence conditions which seek to ensure club sustainability and the overall stability of the English football pyramid, and to protect the cultural heritage of football clubs for their fans.
The government will use this white paper as the basis for targeted engagement to consult with key stakeholders as we develop legislation.
