Payments To Football Agents (EDM1400)

Payments To Football Agents

EDM number 1400 in 2005-06, proposed by Bob Russell on 17/01/2006.

That this House notes with astonishment that in the past six months Football League clubs paid agents Â£4.4 million; urges Premiership clubs also to publish on a regular basis how much they pay agents; notes with dismay that this is money which is taken out of football; questions the benefit to football from agents being paid such large sums; further notes with considerable concern yet more allegations relating to financial and other irregularities; and calls on the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee to hold an inquiry into the activities of football agents.

This motion has been signed by a total of 40 MPs.
