Asked by:
Dr Rosena Allin-Khan (Labour)

Answer

The Sports Grounds Safety Authority, which licenses relevant stadia in England and Wales, has produced a technical report on the Installation of Dual Purpose Seating and Standing Area at Celtic Park, Glasgow, following its introduction at that ground. The report does not consider the case for the introduction of standing accommodation in England and Wales. We will be publishing this report in due course.
