Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many gambling premises were closed down following findings of underage gambling in each year from 2000.

Neither the government nor the Gambling Commission holds this data. Local authorities are responsible for licensing premises.

Whilst Local Authorities are responsible for premises licences, if there are serious failures or widespread vulnerabilities in an operators’ policies or procedures to prevent underage gambling, the Gambling Commission may take formal regulatory action in addition to any action being taken on premises licences.
