(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order revokes the Football Spectators (2020 UEFA European Championship Control Period) Order 2020 (S.I. 2020/11) due to the postponement of the 2020 UEFA (Union of European Football Associations) European Football Championship final tournament ("the Tournament") until 2021. The Football Spectators (2020 UEFA European Championship Control Period) Order 2020 prescribes the control period under the Football Spectators Act 1989 ("the Act") for the Tournament. The control period under the Order was to begin on 7th June 2020, which is five days before the first match in the Tournament was due to take place and end when the last match played outside the United Kingdom in the Tournament is finished or cancelled. The last match outside the United Kingdom was due to be played on 4th July 2020.
During a control period, powers under sections 21A and 21B of the Act (summary powers to detain and refer to a court with a view to making a banning order) are exercisable. Individuals subject to a banning order may be required to surrender their passports during a control period under section 19 of the Act. In addition, bail conditions can be imposed on individuals requiring them to surrender their passports during a control period under section 14A (banning orders made on conviction of an offence) and section 14B (banning orders made on complaint) of the Act.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this Order as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
1989 c. 37. Section 14 was substituted by paragraphs 1 and 2 of Schedule 1 to the Football (Disorder) Act 2000 (c. 25) ("the 2000 Act") and amended by section 103(1) and (2)(a) of the Policing and Crime Act 2009 (c. 26) ("the 2009 Act"). Section 27(6) of the Football Spectators Act 1989 ("the 1989 Act") provides that the 1989 Act extends to England and Wales only (section 27(6) was amended by paragraph 1 of Schedule 3 to the Sports Grounds Safety Authority Act 2011 (c. 6)). However, section 105(1) of the 2009 Act provides that sections 14J(1), 19(6) and 20(10) of the 1989 Act extend to Scotland and Northern Ireland (section 14J was substituted by paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 to the 2000 Act and section 20(10) was amended by paragraph 15(e) of Schedule 2 to the 2000 Act). The control period for the Tournament is relevant to the enforcement in Scotland and Northern Ireland of the offences under sections 14J(1), 19(6) and 20(10) of the 1989 Act.
