Article D224-6 of the French Sports Code

Any contact person responsible for relations with supporters is appointed by the association or, where applicable, the sports company after the latter has sought the opinion of the supporters’ associations approved by the Minister for Sport that support it, by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt.

These supporters’ associations have a period of fifteen days from the date of first presentation of the registered letter to formulate their opinion. In the absence of an opinion within this period, the sports association or company may proceed with the appointment.
