Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how much the planned NHS Northern Gambling Clinic in Leeds is expected to cost, broken down by (1) capital costs, and (2) annual running costs; and how many referrals they expect the clinic to receive each year.

Information on the capacity of the National Problem Gambling Clinic, the number of referrals received, the number of patients receiving treatment there or the clinic’s running costs is not held centrally. This clinic is wholly funded by GambleAware which is a charity and as such the Department does not hold this information.

Information on the estimated capital costs, annual running costs or number of expected referrals to the NHS Northern Gambling Clinic in Leeds proposed by GambleAware is also not held centrally.
