PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(11 November 2024)

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what representations he has made to (a) FIFA and (b) the government of the Kingdom of Morocco on the report entitled Cleansing the streets of Morocco for a football tournament, published by the International Animal Coalition.

Asked by:
Dr Danny Chambers (Liberal Democrat)

The organisation of international sports events is a matter for independent international sports bodies. The FCDO has not made representations to the Kingdom of Morocco or FIFA regarding the report referenced. This Government was elected on a mandate to introduce the most ambitious plans to improve animal welfare in a generation. That is what we intend to do, and we will be outlining more detail in due course.
