	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/06/2015 answer text <p>We conducted a review of stakes and prizes during the last triennial review in 2013 and acknowledged the lack of evidence on whether FOBT gaming machines and related stake size in themselves have had any significant effect on the level of problem gambling in Britain. However, recognising that harm can be caused by gambling, including machine gambling, the government brought in restrictions for the maximum unsupervised stake on FOBTs.</p><p>More time is needed for these changes to bed in before drawing conclusions as to their effectiveness. The Government continues to monitor the effects of existing controls and if need be will take action if these controls are found to be insufficient.</p> answering member printed Baroness Neville-Rolfe question first answered 16/06/2015 15:54:10 answering member 4284 label Biography information for Baroness Neville-Rolfe
