At a meeting of Premier League Shareholders on Friday, clubs discussed in detail how to respond to the COVID-19 global pandemic.
Topics included a season restart date, financial help to clubs and the NHS, and ways to aid the EFL and National League clubs.
Here we recap some of the major points.
League to bring forward £125m solidarity payments
Premier League clubs have voted unanimously to advance funds of £125 million to the EFL and National League to help clubs suffering throughout the football pyramid.
Because of the collective and central nature of the way the Premier League markets rights and distributes income, the League and its members can support the entire football pyramid and a range of community programmes and good causes.
This has never been more evident with Premier League clubs currently supporting tens of thousands of people in their communities each and every day through targeted activity.
But with football suspended clubs further down the leagues are struggling for income and, while there is no single solution, measures are to be put in place to immediately deal with the impact of falling cash flow.
'A positive impact'
This means that solidarity payments, parachute club payments and Academy grants due to be made in August 2020 will now be brought forward to April to help clubs suffering at this time.
An EFL statement reads: "The EFL notes and appreciates the decision taken today by the Premier League in respect of the short-term financial relief it is to provide EFL clubs.
"These actions will have a positive impact on individual clubs across our three divisions at a difficult and uncertain time."
