Call Government Panel on UKAD

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

The signatories believe that the Government Panel on UKAD should be called. At the same time British athletes must not be allowed to apply for TUE because it goes against the principle of fair play.
Recent scandals regarding the doping cases of Sir Bradley Wiggins and Sir Mo Farah proved athletes' dishonesty to their competitors as well as UKAD inability to fight for doping-free sport and fair play. This issue should be discussed by the Government Panel in order to recover the honest name of British sport.
