	question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to prevent children and young people becoming addicted to gambling.
	tabling member printed	Lord Storey
	uin	HL10174
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/09/2018 answer text Protecting children and the vulnerable from being harmed or exploited by gambling is a core objective of the regulation of gambling in Great Britain, and a priority for the government. Operators offering gambling services to people in Great Britain must have a licence from the Gambling Commission and must have effective policies and procedures designed to prevent underage gambling. The Gambling Commission has a range of powers to act in the case of failure, including the power to suspend or revoke a licence, impose financial penalties or prosecute criminal offences. The Review of Gaming Machines and Social Responsibility set out measures to increase existing protections around online gambling and gambling advertising. The Gambling Commission is currently consulting on strengthening age verification protections for online gambling. It is also working with the video games industry to raise awareness of the risks of third parties using its products to provide illegal gambling facilities.<p> </p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 19/09/2018 13:07:58 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
