Enforcement of regulations
The key theme over the coming months for the RFU and ARB are governance and ensuring the regulations around agent’s activity are enforced. The ARB is considering proposals around the introduction of fixed sanctions and a tariff tables for breaches such as nonattendance at seminars and non – compliant contracts. They are also looking into the introduction of a mediation service for disputes between agents and/ or players and clubs and the introduction of a complaint log. We are in close liaison with the RFU on these proposals and will keep members posted on developments.
