	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/06/2015 answer text <p>I have no plans to allow B2 gaming machines in amusement arcades. In April 2014 the previous Government announced action which included £50 staking measures on B2 gaming machines in bookmakers which came into force in April 2015. I think we need to give time for these regulations to bed in before we consider further legislative options. I will also want to consult with a wide range of stakeholders on this issue before thinking about next steps.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 22/06/2015 16:29:15 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Tracey Crouch
