  • Reviewing, each season, the recommendations from the Financial Monitoring Director to determine if a club has sufficient financial resources to complete the upcoming season.
  • Reviewing referrals from the Financial Monitoring Director regarding Material Change Notices and other concerns, such as in-season issues with a club’s financial resources.
  • Determining whether a club has breached the regulations as alleged in the Financial Monitoring Director’s report.

The Chair must be a legally qualified individual with at least ten years' experience as a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales, with familiarity in sports-related dispute resolution and relevant financial experience. Additional member must be legally qualified and/or an accountant.
