Chris Philp – 2021 Comments on Gambling Addiction

The comments made by Chris Philp, the Gambling Minister, on 30 September 2021.

We are gathering all the necessary evidence to reset the balance between giving adults the freedom to choose how they gamble safely, with the right protections for those at risk of harm.

We are determined to protect vulnerable people from exploitation by aggressive advertising or unfair practices that entrench problem gambling.
