FIFA's Executive Committee is to meet next week Friday in Zurich, Switzerland, to discuss issues around the 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup being hosted by South Africa and related projects.

This will be the first meeting of the world football governing body, to be chaired by President Sepp Blatter since the successful 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.

"One key point will be the ratification of the new Code of Ethics to regulate the composition, purpose and duties of the new FIFA Ethics Committee and the creation of which was approved [at the FIFA Congress] in Munich," FIFA's official website said.

Mr Blatter is expected to deliver a report on the continued activities of the organization's Task Force "For the Good of the Game", while discussions will include matters surrounding the "Win in Africa with Africa" initiative, which will run alongside the 2010 World Cup.

Win in Africa with Africa was initiated by President Thabo Mbeki and Mr Blatter to ensure that the entire African continent benefits from the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

The month long tournament to be hosted by South Africa, has been branded the African World Cup by both presidents.

The charitable initiative, the "FIFA Fund for a Better World", will also be discussed.

In other matters, the committee is expected to discuss a number of pending or closed cases relating to FIFA's member associations, and further deliberate legal and sports-political matters.

Nigeria's Dr Amos Adamu will sit on the meeting for the first time to represent the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in place of d Ismal Bhamjee of Botswana, who recently stepped down from his duties, FIFA said. - BuaNews
