FIFA passed a decision Monday to lift the suspension of the Cameroonian Football Association (FECAFOOT) given that the conditions previously set have been met.

As requested by the FIFA Emergency Committee, the normalisation committee that was appointed on 20 July 2013 was able to take up its duties Monday at the FECAFOOT headquarters, with FIFA and CAF observers present.

The lifting of the suspension means that FECAFOOT's clubs, officials and other representatives can immediately resume their activities, which had been interrupted. The same applies for the resumption of the courses and various programmes provided by FIFA, CAF and other member associations.

FIFA and CAF will continue to closely monitor the situation, particularly in relation to the revision of the FECAFOOT statutes.
