Badjie submitted the proposal. The legislation converts the National Sports Council into a Sports Authority, while also adding athlete protections and rules governing commercial activities. The bill creates a Sports Tribunal, an anti-doping system and a development fund to support transparent operations across athletic organizations. Badjie said the law will strengthen administration and align Gambian sports governance with global standards through dedicated financing and clearer association regulations. [/QUOTE]
