Football And The Sporting Listed Events Review

EDM number 1563 in 2008-09, proposed by John Grogan on 01/06/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Broadcasting and Sports.

That this House welcomes the review of sporting listed events which must be made available to free-to-air broadcasters such as the BBC and ITV at a fair and reasonable price; is concerned that FIFA and UEFA want to take most of the World Cup and European Championship finals matches off the A List to allow them to be auctioned off to subscription or pay TV; believes that it would be a travesty if England were to host the 2018 World Cup finals and most of the matches could not be watched live by those who could not afford to pay; further believes that the World Cup and European Championship finals are unique sporting events of national and international significance which should remain accessible to all in their entirety; and in addition recommends that all qualifying matches of the home nations should be available live free-to-air in the home nation concerned and that the A List should be amended accordingly.

This motion has been signed by a total of 66 MPs.
