8 December 1999

Dear Mr Lambert,
In response to your latest communication and on the basis of information received from the UEFA, I am pleased to inform you of the following.

A meeting was held recently between representatives of sportswear manufacturers, the World Federation of Sporting Goods Industries (WFSGI), ISL (*) and EURO 2000 to discuss ways to make progress over issues raised by the Clean Clothes Campaign.

Firstly, goods produced under ISL licence for EURO 2000 undertake to respect the WFSGI code of conduct.

Secondly, the UEFA and ISL have demanded that company codes of conduct and the Code of Labour Practices for the Production of Goods licensed by the FIFA be explicitly included in contracts signed between sponsors and ISL, which constitutes considerable progress compared to the 1998 World Cup.

This demonstrates the willingness of the UEFA and Euro 2000 to take into consideration the basic rights of children.

Yours sincerely,
Alain Courtois
Director of Euro 2000 Tournament
