Council members must travel to Zurich
FIFA, the governing body for world football, has offered its council members access to documents on the abandoned FIFA Forward Enterprise proposal for World Cup investment. The arrangement requires an in-person visit to its headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland, under strict confidentiality rules. Secretary general Mattias Grafström set out the terms in a letter to members.[1], [2]
Members have until 16 November to request an inspection. That falls two days before the deadline for candidates to declare that they are standing in the presidential election. Which documents members can inspect, and how extensive the access is, remain unclear.[1]
