HC Deb 13 November 1987 vol 122 c348W
Mr. Denis Howell

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what advice the Minister for Sport has given to football clubs regarding the precise legal authority which would enable stewards to require breathalyser tests from citizens attending football matches ; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Moynihan

[holding answer, 12 November 1987]I refer the right hon. Member to the answer given to him on 3 November at column660. I have given no advice about the use of breathalysers to football clubs. It is the responsibility of each club to decide the terms and conditions under which it will admit spectators to its premises and how its stewards should enforce them.
