the UK Football Policing Unit, the Football Association, and the Sports Ground Safety
Authority, to ensure that the recommendations from Baroness Casey of Blackstock’s
report were carefully considered and, where necessary, acted upon.</p><p>Our approach
with respect to these recommendations is outlined in our evidence to the DCMS Select
Committee of the House of Commons’s Inquiry into Safety at Major Sporting Events,
a copy of which I have placed in the Library.</p><p>In the case of Wembley Stadium,
significant work has been undertaken by the Football Association and its key partners
following Baroness Casey’s report, as successfully demonstrated during the UEFA Women’s
Euros and other high-profile events.</p><p>The safety of spectators at sporting events
is of the highest importance to His Majesty’s Government.</p><p> </p>
