Professional Football Players

HC Deb 10 July 1963 vol 680 cc147-8W

56. Mr. Rankin

asked the Minister of Labour if he will introduce legislation to bring the transfer and retention system which governs the employment of Scottish professional football players into line with that which will now obtain in England.

Mr. Hare

I understand that it is not yet settled whether an appeal is to be made against the recent judgment affecting professional football players in England.
