The work of the Football Task Force has greatly benefited football in this country since May 1997. Many of the important recommendations of the Task Force's three previous reports on racism, disabled access and community involvement have been implemented. The Government are now discussing the final report, Football: Commercial Issues, with the football authorities and other interested parties.
