<p>Society lottery limits were last increased as part of a wider package of reforms
in 2020. These reforms were reviewed 12 months after they were implemented. The results
of the review were published in March 2022, and can be accessed on the <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/review-of-society-lottery-sales-and-prize-limits/one-year-review-of-society-lotteries-sales-and-prize-limits"
target="_blank">gov.uk</a> website. The review concluded that it was too soon to reach
any firm view on the impact of the changes, especially during a time when the effect
of the COVID-19 pandemic made evaluation more difficult, and that more data on annual
growth of the sector were required before considering any further changes. Officials
continue to work with the Gambling Commission, as part of its regulatory role, to
keep the sector under review.</p><p> </p>
