In February 2021 a moratorium was approved on relegation from the league for that season. Promotion from the Championship would still take place meaning the league expanded to 13 teams from 2021–22. The moratorium was extended by an additional two seasons in June 2021. This mean the Premiership may expand again to 14 teams from 2022–23. The new regulations also introduce a moratorium on promotion from the Championship in the same season and introduce a play-off between the bottom placed Premiership Club and top placed Championship club in 2023–24.
