Several UEFA committees have held meetings at the House of European Football in Nyon over the past few days as part of the European body's regular committee weeks.
The committees have debated a broad list of issues relating to European football activities. The committees' deliberations and recommendations will now be presented to the UEFA Executive Committee, which next meets in Paris on 20 and 21 March.
Nineteen committees are involved in shaping UEFA's policy across the wide span of European football. The committees deal with subjects ranging from medical matters and players' status/transfers to refereeing, finance and the UEFA competitions; they submit proposals and recommendations to UEFA's Executive Committee, which may also delegate some of its duties to a specific committee.
UEFA committees and expert panels have an advisory function, unless regulations adopted by the Executive Committee grant them decision-making powers.
