The report identified 0.8% of the adult population as problem gamblers, which is a similar rate to that found in the British Gambling Prevalence Survey published in 2012.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2020 answer text <p>The Gambling Commission requires all operators licensed under the Gambling Act 2005 to make an annual contribution to fund research, prevention and treatment of problem gambling, and publishes a list of organisations to which operators may direct this contribution. The time taken by the Commission to reach a decision about whether an organisation can be included on that list depends on a number of factors. These include the quality and completeness of the information provided by the organisation, the complexity of issues associated with information provided and whether further investigation into independent oversight or potential conflicts of interest is required.</p> answering member constituency Mid Worcestershire answering member printed Nigel Huddleston question first answered 18/11/2020 16:06:52 answering member 4407 label Biography information for Nigel Huddleston
