The Government has no current plans to publish a review or evaluation document on remote gaming duty.

The reference in the 2014 HMRC draft note relates to the internal monitoring and evaluation process, which is standard practice across all taxes. The benefits, revenue effects and administration of remote gambling taxation are subject to constant evaluation.
