Written Answers
Gambling: Video Games Asked by: Lord Butler of Brockwell (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 12th February 2026 Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport: To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the answer by Baroness Twycross on Thursday 15 January (Hansard: HL Deb col 183), when they expect to publish the report on industry-led guidance on loot boxes. Answered by Baroness Twycross - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip) The Government is committed to ensuring games are enjoyed safely and responsibly by everyone and that, where they contain loot boxes, there are appropriate protections in place for players of all ages. To improve those protections, industry-led guidance was published in 2023 with a 12-month implementation period after which DCMS commissioned independent academic research into its effectiveness. We will publish the research in the near future, alongside our next steps.
Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme Asked by: Lord Bishop of Southwark (Bishops - Bishops) Monday 26th January 2026 Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport: To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Twycross on 16 September 2025 (HL10149), what plans they have to disburse all the remaining funds in the Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme by raising the cap on individual claims retrospectively in the final weeks of the scheme. Answered by Baroness Twycross - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip) The Scheme for 2025 to 2026 will close on 31st March 2026 or once the £23 million budget has been reached, whichever is earlier. In order to ensure the scheme is available to as many listed places of worship as possible, within this context, we do not feel it is appropriate to reassess the cap for this financial year. As announced on 22 January, from April 2026, the Places of Worship Renewal Fund will introduce to a more targeted model aimed at places of worship in areas of greatest need, ensuring that every pound of taxpayers' money is leveraged to secure the future of our heritage while supporting the government's wider missions for national renewal and community cohesion.

Answered by Baroness Taylor of Stevenage - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip) A consultation on reforms to the statutory consultee system closed on Tuesday 13 January 2026, and can be found (attached) on gov.uk here. No decision will be made on Sport England’s role until feedback on the impacts of the consultation proposals has been fully reviewed.
