answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/11/2020 answer text <p>The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) work closely together on matters related to gambling harm, including on measures and services in place to support problem gamblers. The government has committed to review the Gambling Act 2005 to ensure it is fit for the digital age and further details will be announced in due course. In addition, at the time of the General Election the government committed to developing a strategy on addictions, including gambling, although this has been delayed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. DCMS and DHSC will continue to work closely together and with wider government in the delivery of these commitments.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Worcestershire answering member printed Nigel Huddleston question first answered 02/11/2020 14:38:21 answering member 4407 label Biography information for Nigel Huddleston
