Recommendation 18

18

Mr Kogan will prioritise appointing experienced leadership for the new football regulator

Conclusion
One of our concerns before our hearing was Mr Kogan’s lack of regulatory experience and how this would impact his ability to adequately set up a new regulatory body. He was able to address some of our concerns and reassure the Committee that he will prioritise helping appoint a CEO and Executive Board with the relevant experience to assist in establishing a new and effective framework. His other priorities for the organisation suggested a measured and accurate analysis of what would be expected from the regulator in the first 18 months.
