A commitment was given to UEFA to introduce legislation to prevent the unauthorised transfer and use of tickets for matches or official events related to EURO 2020 to be held here. Officials of my Department have met with UEFA officials to discuss the implementation of the commitment. I will bring forward legislative provisions necessary to give effect to the commitment before tickets go on sale.
