uin	953
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2020 answer text <p>No recent estimate has been made. The Government recognises the popularity of the Football Pools. But reducing Pool Betting Duty is likely to have a negligible effect and could put revenue at risk, particularly through incentivising switching of products from fixed odds bets to pooled bets. HM Treasury however keeps all taxes under active review.</p> answering member constituency Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland answering member printed Mr Simon Clarke grouped question UIN 954 question first answered 14/01/2020 09:45:49 answering member 4655 label Biography information for Sir Simon Clarke
