FIFA Ethics Committee could be requested to open another investigation.
An e-mail from Warner to Triesman in February 2010 should form an essential element of a report by the FA.
In this document, Warner urged the FA to contribute to the cost of rights to show the that World Cup games in the world on the giant screens.
Lord Triesman, speaking before a parliamentary select earlier in may, Committee claimed four members of the Executive Committee of Fifa did what he described as "unethical claims" during the course of bidding for the 2018 World Cup.
Among these claims were claims that Warner had asked the FA to buy TV rights money to build a centre of education in Trinidad and the FA for Haiti 2010 World Cup.
In the e-mail, he wrote: "If you can help in any way by contributing in part or in whole to the purchase of these rights, I am certain that all of Haiti will be forever grateful."
He mentioned that a company had purchased the rights for $1. 6 m (￡ 980,000), but that it would be able to "get this substantially reduced figure."
E-MAIL JACK WARNER TO LORD TRIESMANMr David
My apologies for this late response for your wonderful offer of aid to Haiti for which I am really happy. People need all the help we can give. I made a visit to Haiti the weekend to meet with the President of the Haiti FF to determine first-hand the needs of our family of football last. A report has since been done describing their needs and their proposals to meet these needs in the short, medium and long term. The report is included for your information. On this basis, I leave it to you to determine the best options for the FA to how you all can help.FIFA, in addition to financial assistance, is providing large TV screens placed in the two stages of football (during which stages football can no longer be played in the immediate future) so that all Haitians can see the 2010 World Cup. However before the earthquake owner of rights had accused the alto de $1 USD for rights to a tax which they had agreed to pay. I have since spoken to the owners and can obtain this substantially reduced figure. If you believe that you can help in any way by contributing in part or in whole to the purchase of these rights, I am sure that all of Haiti will be forever grateful.
Thank you again for any help you can give and I look forward to you soon.
Regards
Jack

FIFA, the ultimate owner of distribution rights in the open air at the 2010 World Cup, told the BBC that no public consultation license was never granted for Haiti.
According to her, he had no discussion anywhere in the world for an amount greater than $1. 6 m, but its response poses serious questions about the case Warner was trying to make arrangements with the FA.
On Wednesday, Fifa announced that its Ethics Board would charge Warner and a member of the Committee Executive companions Mohamed Bin Hammam of corruption.
And although it is not clear if Fifa Ethics Committee adds this last allegation in the indictment met by Warner, it puts even more doubt on the integrity of the governing body of world football.
Warner has not responded to the BBC attempts to contact him about this story, although he denied previous allegations of the Triesman.
Meanwhile, Fifa President Sepp Blatter, writing for the Web in World Football, said: "I take absolutely no joy in seeing my friends and colleagues for many years, dragged before the Ethics Committee."
"I take no joy to see men who stood at my side for two decades, suffer through public humiliation without having been found guilty of any wrongdoing."
"No one is guilty until a judge found him guilty beyond reasonable doubt".
The FA has launched its own investigation, call the James Dingemans QC to compile a report for Fifa.
