• Lord Myners will look at making public reports of cap breaches• Saracens’ review head says ‘public has a right to know’
The former business minister Lord Myners will consider whether Premiership Rugby’s salary cap procedures should become more transparent, and if reports such as the damning one into Saracens’ multiple breaches should be made public, as part of his review into the working of the cap.
Saracens last week accepted a further 35-point penalty and consequent relegation for salary cap breaches this season, in addition to the 35-point penalty imposed following the investigation into their breaches over the three previous seasons. But the whole process remains essentially private.
