“The new meeting date will be communicated to you in due course,” the statement read.
According to the GFA Normalization Committee, the postponement of the meeting has become necessary after their meeting with the Parliamentary Select Committee for Sports and Culture, and knowing that the committee will be meeting all clubs on Wednesday.
The NC is, therefore, holding on with the meeting until the Parliamentary Committee has exhausted their meeting with the clubs before they know the next step to take.
