FIFA appoints normalisation committee for the Pakistan Football Federation

On 27 June 2019, the Bureau of the FIFA Council decided to appoint a normalisation committee for the Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) in accordance with art. 14 par 1(a) and art 8 par 2 of the FIFA Statutes.

The decision follows the recent FIFA/AFC fact-finding mission to Pakistan, which concluded that only free, fair and transparent elections of the PFF executive committee would reunite the football stakeholders in Pakistan and set the basis for development of football which has been at a standstill in the country since 2015.

The mandate of the normalisation committee includes the following:

To run the PFF’s daily affairs;

To ensure the proper registration and scrutiny of clubs in Pakistan;

To draft and ratify, with the assistance of FIFA and the AFC, an electoral code for the PFF;

To organise and conduct elections at district followed by provincial levels; and

To organise and conduct the elections of a new PFF executive committee.

The normalisation committee will be composed of members recognized by the FIFA administration, in consultation with the AFC and relevant local stakeholders. All members of the normalisation committee will be subject to an eligibility check, in line with the FIFA Governance Regulations.

Moreover normalisation committee will act as an electoral committee, whose decisions will be final and binding, and the specified period of time during which it will perform its functions will expire as soon as it has fulfilled all of its tasks but no later than nine months after its members have been officially appointed by FIFA.

FIFA and the AFC will now begin the task of identifying, interviewing and selecting the members of the normalisation committee – an update will be provided on that matter in due course.
