A May 2023 survey in the United Kingdom explored opinions on who was responsible for an athlete to stay clean and avoid sports doping. The largest share of respondents stated that it was the combined responsibility of sports organisations, national governing bodies of sport and UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) to keep athletes clean. Moreover, more than half of respondents stated that the athletes themselves were responsible.
