LONDON : The British government published a 10-point action plan on Friday to tackle concussion in sport by developing new protocols alongside sporting bodies and introducing new technology by autumn next year to mitigate head injuries.

The recommendations are a response to the Digital, Culture, Media & Sport Committee's inquiry earlier this year, which urged the government to adopt a"coherent approach" to look into head injuries in sport. "That's why we're taking steps to reduce this risk and developing new, gold-standard industry protocols and focusing on emerging tech that can help build a fuller picture of the risks involved."

The league introduced permanent concussion substitutions trials in February after the game's rule-making body IFAB gave the go-ahead for trials of additional"concussion subs".
