Part 10: Management of offenders Chapter 5: Football banning Orders Section 190: Football Banning Orders: relevant offences
Subsections (1) and (2) introduce the amendments to the Football Spectators Act 1989 ("the 1989 Act"), and Schedule 1 of that Act, respectively.
	Subsections (3) to (7) amend Schedule 1 to the 1989 Act which sets out the list of relevant offences which, on conviction, may attract a football banning order preventing further attendance at regulated football matches.
	Subsections (3) to (5) add to Schedule 1 the offence under section 4 of the Public Order Act 1986 (fear or provocation of violence) when committed:
at, or when entering or leaving, any premises during a period relevant to a football match;
on a journey to or from a football match and where the court makes a declaration that the offence related to a football match; or
otherwise committed during a period relevant to a football match and where the court makes a declaration that the offence related to a football match.
	Subsection (6) adds to Schedule 1 any offence under Part 3 or 3A of the Public Order Act 1986 (racial hatred or hatred against persons on religious grounds or grounds of sexual orientation) and any offence under section 31 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (racially or religiously aggravated public order offences) where the court makes a declaration that the offence related to a football match, to a football organisation or to a person whom the accused knew or believed to have a prescribed connection to a football organisation.
	Subsection (6) also adds to Schedule 1 communications offences under section 1 of the Malicious Communications Act 1988 (offence of sending letter, electronic communication or article with intent to cause distress or anxiety) and under section 127(1) of the Communications Act 2003 (improper use of public telecommunications network), not otherwise covered in the Schedule, where the court has stated on sentencing that the offence is aggravated by racial or religious hostility, or hostility related to disability, sexual orientation or transgender identity (the grounds set out in section 66(1) of the Code) and where the court makes a declaration that the offence related to a football match, to a football organisation or to a person whom the accused knew or believed to have a prescribed connection to a football organisation.
	Subsections (7) and (8) define a "football organisation" for the purposes of Schedule 1 as a "regulated football organisation" for the purposes of Part 2 of the 1989 Act, being an organisation that relates to association football and which is prescribed, or it’s description is prescribed, by order made by the Secretary of State. Subsection (7) also provides that an order setting out where a person has a "prescribed connection" to a football organisation can include a past or future connection, such as a player announced as having agreed to sign for a team but not yet employed by that team or a football manager who has recently retired.
	Subsections (9) to (11) amend subsections (1) and (5) of section 23 of the 1989 Act whereby a "declaration of relevance", which the court must make for offences committed away from a football stadium to be "relevant offences" for the purposes of section 14A and Schedule 1, can now relate not only to football matches but also football organisations, or persons with a prescribed connection to a football organisation. This encompasses, for example, the remote hate offences against football organisations or persons connected to football, such as a racist tweet against a football team or player. The court will now be able to make a declaration of relevance that an offence is football-related in those circumstances.
	Subsection (12) provides that this section does not apply in relation to offences committed before the provision comes into force.
