What to focus on while you read
Working Group, matters not provided for, official languages, enforcement
The closing articles cover institutional follow-up (Working Group), gap-filling for matters not provided for, official languages, and enforcement. These are shorter but still produce precise language-authority and 'matters not provided for' questions.
Key points
- A Working Group / institutional mechanism supports ongoing development and monitoring of the Football Agent regulatory framework as set out in the closing provisions.
- Matters not provided for are decided under the FFAR's gap-filling rule (not by inventing first-instance CAS exclusive jurisdiction).
- Official language rules determine which text is authoritative on discrepancy among the language versions provided.
- Enforcement provisions confirm when and how the regulations take effect and are applied.
Exam traps
- Sending every regulatory gap straight to CAS at first instance.
- Picking the wrong authoritative language text on discrepancy without reading the FFAR closing language clause.
