<p>The introduction of a statutory levy on gambling operators will represent a generational
change to funding arrangements and a renewed commitment to improving efforts to further
understand, tackle and treat harmful gambling. We want to see levy funding directed
where it is needed most across research, prevention and treatment of gambling-related
harms. As set out in our public consultation, the prevention stream could see investment
directed for projects to build capacity and expertise in frontline settings to increase
responsiveness to gambling harm, including criminal justice settings.</p><p>We are
now closely considering all evidence received to best guide the implementation of
the statutory levy in an effective, fair and proportionate way. We will publish a
response to the consultation setting out our final decisions soon. This will also
include a full list of organisations who agreed to attribute their response to their
organisation.</p>
