answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2014 answer text <p>The FA have been recording cases of antidiscrimination centrally since the start of the 2013/14 season, cases having previously been recorded by County FAs. The 2013/14 season showed 587 antidiscrimination cases in total of which 8% were in respect of sexual orientation.</p><p> </p><p>DCMS and The FA take matters of discrimination very seriously: any form of racism, anti-Semitism or homophobia is completely unacceptable. Following the 2012 Downing Street summit on racism in football, The FA are now delivering against a whole sport Inclusion and Anti-Discrimination Plan called “Football’s for Everyone” to build equality and inclusion in football. I welcome this commitment, and specific initiatives, such as “Football vs Homophobia”. The FA Inclusion Advisory Board reports quarterly to DCMS on progress.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Maidstone and The Weald answering member printed Mrs Helen Grant question first answered 11/09/2014 10:17:14 answering member 4018 label Biography information for Mrs Helen Grant
