Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what plans she has for the regulation of women's football.

The Government published its response to the recommendations made by the independent Fan Led Review of Football Governance in April. We absolutely recognise the need for football to be reformed to ensure the game’s sustainability in the long term. We remain committed to publishing a White Paper setting out our proposals for the reform of football governance and will do so imminently.

On women’s football we have considered the findings of the Fan Led Review. The Review of Women’s Football is still gathering evidence and we do not want to preempt the findings of that Review, which will be published in due course.
