Amendment No. 2 | Doc. 14464 | 23 January 2018

Working towards a framework for modern sports governance

Committee on Culture, Science, Education and Media

Origin - 2018 - First part-session

In the draft resolution, at the end of paragraph 8, add the following sentence:

"Member States should be encouraged to request that their national sports organisations be certified to the currently applicable ISO 37001 (anti-bribery) and ISO 20121 (event sustainability) standards."

Explanatory note

These ISO standards already exist and are also applicable to sports organisations. As mentioned in paragraph 82 of the report, ISO 37001(2016) is a step forward in sports governance which could be imposed on those organising major sports events or those who receive public subsidies of over a certain sum.
