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

To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they intend to complete and then publish the review of gaming machines and social responsibility measures.

The review of gaming machines and social responsibility measures began with a 6 week call for evidence on 24 October, closing on 4 December. The call for evidence generated a lot of interest from the general public, as well as from a variety of interest groups, local authorities, trade bodies and industry. We are now looking in depth at the evidence and aim to publish our findings and any proposals in spring 2017.
