EFL sanctions against clubs

in General Charlton
is there anywhere where this is clearly laid out? 

In recent years, what sanctions / punishments have been taken against which clubs and for what reason?

keen to see some indicators of where we might be heading

    Bury went over a season, including the summer break, without passing the fit and proper test and got no sanctions.

    Only when they didn't pay wages IIRC did the finally EFL step in.

    I personally think the rule should be you can't start a new season without meeting all the tests but it's not, or at least wasn't, the rule last summer.

    Macclesfield also got points docked for not fulfilling fixtures

    But this is only for administration and associated events, including Bury's CVA.

    Edit this appears more conclusive

    Bury entered a CVA to avoid administration, but it's the same thing under the EFL rules.  However they refused to pass the details to the EFL and that's what caused their eventual expulsion.

     I agree. But this doesn't help if a group 'takeover' on November 29th say.
