The EFL say they'll work with the FA and Premier League to "get through" the challenges presented by coronavirus and insist completing the season is their "primary objective".
They've made an emergency short-term relief package of 50-million pounds available as basic award payments and interest-free loans to help clubs deal with the financial impact.
The English Football League is set to continue to look into ways the season can be completed, once it's safe for action to resume.
"The primary objective, in order to protect competition integrity, is to deliver a successful conclusion to the 2019/20 season, subject to the over-riding priority around health and well-being" a statement read.
"Plans continue to be developed on the agreed principle that it is in the best interests of the EFL and Clubs to complete the current season at the appropriate time.
"The EFL is continuing regular dialogue with the Government and relevant health authorities and, as and when more information is known regarding the scale and extent of the coronavirus outbreak in this country, a decision will be taken on the resumption of the League’s fixtures.
"Conversations will continue with the EFL’s counterparts at the FA, the Premier League, the PFA and the LMA to ensure football achieves a joined-up and collaborative approach.
"As part of the League’s continued contingency planning, the Board heard the comments and observations from EFL Clubs, before discussing a number of issues including the current financial position and implications, insurance, regulatory matters and broadcasting arrangements.
"Discussions centred on financial relief for Clubs in the short term and while there is no one single solution, measures are to be put in place to immediately assist with cash flow via a £50million short-term relief package."
Premier League clubs meanwhile will hold further discussions today in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
