He is a board member of a football club in Wales.
The Committee considered the petition for the first time and
agreed to write to:
- the Football Association
of Wales to seek their view on the issues raised by the petition and
information on the latest position in relation to domestic football in
Wales, including discussions taking place in their working group with
clubs, the possibilities for supporters to attend matches safely and the
ongoing financial viability of leagues and clubs; and
- the Deputy Minister for Culture,
Tourism and Sport to ask for details of the outcome of the test events
referred to in his previous correspondence, the scientific basis of the
current restrictions on supporters attending sporting events,
consideration being given to funding for domestic clubs, and ask for
further consideration to be given to allowing some spectators to attend
football matches if this can be done whilst adhering to social distancing.
